What does “FIFO” mean?

In the foodservice industry, the term FIFO is a commonly used abbreviation for “first in, first out.” It is a principle and method used to manage inventory. This method ensures that the oldest food items are used first. This reduces food waste and spoilage.

FIFO Squeeze bottles.

There are many different brands of FIFO Bottles on the market. These types of bottles have several benefits. FIFO bottles are often designed with easy-to-use dispensing mechanism with flip-top caps. This makes them convenient for employees to use. The bottles are made of 3 parts, so it is very easy to take apart and clean each night also. The bottles are designed to take up minimal space.

How to label FIFO Bottles?

Of course, all bottles can be labeled with our standard silicone bands. In fact, we made bands for HOTHEAD Burritos with their logo on them several years ago. The bands are still in use on their FIFO Bottles today. However, there is an even better way to label FIFO Bottles! Back in 2015, an idea came to our founder: a silicone cap or lid that slides right over the top cap of FIFO style squeeze bottles. This way the top of the lid AND the side can be labeled. Importantly, you can identify the contents when it is sitting in a caddy or shelf. We call it the Lid Wrap, some call it a bottle cap. We have made this product available in different sizes to fit ALL types of FIFO Bottles. Made of 100% food grade silicone. Very durable and long-lasting!
