The Perks of Popcorn Lids

Keepin’ It Tidy!

What’s great about movie theater popcorn lids? Seriously, what’s not?

As a movie theater owner or operator, you know the value of popcorn lids, and not just for popcorn. Lids help contain food (and beverages). While a clear plastic cup lid has become an expected convention to help keep more soda in cups and less on the floor, the same has not been true of popcorn.

The biggest drawback of popcorn for a movie theater is its inherent messiness. Concession stand workers pile the popcorn high over the rim in an effort to give the customer the full value. But sadly, the full value often ends up on the floor between the concession stand and the theater. It’s messy and wasteful.

A Kernel Kover popcorn bucket lid protects your space from this mess. It’s not only less work for your janitorial staff, but your space stays cleaner and tidier.

Customers are not impressed with movie theaters littered with popcorn kernels. You could employ several workers to rush around all night with brooms and dustpans, sweeping up errant kernels. Or, you could get Kernel Kover popcorn tub lids.

They’re helpful for containing popcorn not only in the lobby and the aisles but also keeping off the floors under the seats. This is a spot where drinks are unfortunately sometimes spilled as well, and the combination of sticky soda and piles of popcorn kernels make for a seriously unpleasant mess to clean up in between every showing.

Popcorn lids also offer patrons a safe and sanitary serving environment so your theater can adhere to new food service safety requirements due to COVID-19.

Treat Time Saver!

But popcorn bin lids are not only a great help to the cleaning staff — customers and concession stand staff loves them too!

No one likes waiting in line. If you have a long line at your concession stand, customers will get bored, become annoyed, and maybe even choose to leave the line and not buy any snacks at all, costing you precious dollars.

It’s easy enough for concession stand workers to hand customers boxes of Mike and Ike’s or Jujubes, but when it comes to popcorn, they have to scoop it into the bucket, ask the customer if they want flavoring and then take the time to add it. Some customers may want more or less flavoring than others and will ask the server to adjust the amount.

All this takes time — time your workers could be using to serve others in the line. Why not just allow the customers to add the toppings themselves? This is what the Kernel Kover theater popcorn lid allows them to do.

Each moviegoer can add the precise amount of toppings they want to their bucket of popcorn. Then they can just pop the domed movie popcorn lid on and shake it up themselves. As soon as that lid goes on, they can step away from the seasoning area to give the next person their turn. It’s fast, it’s easy, it’s cleaner and customers are happier because their popcorn is just how they like it.
