The Plastic Honey Jar 500ml is a food-grade PET packaging container used by commercial and smallholder honey producers in Kenya for retail, wholesale, and institutional honey packing. The 500ml size is the preferred household purchase unit for regular honey consumers, bulk buyers, and institutional customers such as schools and hotels ā offering better value per millilitre than the 250ml jar and a stronger per-unit revenue than smaller sizes.
What Is the Plastic Honey Jar 500ml?
The 500ml plastic honey jar is a transparent food-grade PET container designed for honey packaging at the household and value-pack retail level. At approximately 700g honey fill weight (honey density ā 1.4g/ml), the 500ml jar is the standard household honey unit for regular consumers who purchase honey weekly or monthly. It is widely used by commercial honey producers selling through agro-vets, supermarkets, farmer markets, and institutional channels across Kenya. Like the 250ml version, it is shatter-resistant, lightweight, and transparent ā allowing consumers to assess honey quality before purchase.
