What Factors Affect Menu Cover Pricing?

Leather vs. Leatherette vs. Linen Menu Covers
Menu covers come in all kinds of material depending on your or your clientsβ needs. A few options include leather, leatherette, and linen, among others.Β
- Leather menu covers are our premium cover material and are usually the priciest, with quality that customers can feel. They are durable and long-lasting.Β
- Leatherette menu covers look and feel similar to leather, but at a more affordable price. Often referred to as faux leather or vegan leather, leatherette is usually harder, less durable, and made of polyurethane or similar materials.Β
- Linen menu covers are a more unique option. These are textured menus that are quite memorable. They can come in a variety of colors, fabrics, and patterns. While linen isnβt usually very expensive, it also isnβt the most durable. It is recommended for protected environments and upscale dining.Β
Other popular menu cover materials include wood, metal, wall covering, cork and more. Browse pictures for inspiration here.Β
How Does Order Quantity Affect Pricing?
When ordering menu covers, bulk pricing applies. Traditional price breaks are at the following quantities: 25, 50, 100, 250, and beyond. Occasionally we make as few as 10 menus depending on material. We create wholesale menu covers for distributors and offer net pricing, just mention you are a distributor when requesting a quote.
How Much Does Logo Customization Cost?
Logo customization can come in the form of debossing, embossing, embroidery, foil stamping, silk screening, full-color printing, and more. When debossing, embossing, or stamping, a deco die is required. These generally start at $90 but increase in cost based on size and complexity of the artwork. See more here.Β

How to Choose Menu Covers for Your Restaurant Budget
Choosing the right menu covers depends on many factors. However, you do want to consider the potential costs of choosing cheap. Choosing a $40 menu cover that lasts 10 years over an $8 dollar menu cover that lasts 1 year is the smarter long-term move. However, we understand that everyone has different needs, environments, and budgets.Β
