At RacetopPrint, we love seeing small businesses and community initiatives thrive. That’s why we are thrilled to continue our collaboration with Tails & Tacos, a catering company that brings joy to dog lovers across Southern California. Known for its on-site catering, food drop-offs, and pop-up events, Tails & Tacos combines its passion for tacos with charitable efforts that support local organizations. By creating fun experiences for dogs and their owners, it also provides a platform for small businesses to showcase their brands.
1. Bringing Paws & Tacos Together
Tails & Tacos isn’t just about great food—it’s about fostering connections within the community. Their events bring together dog owners, pups, and local vendors in a lively, family-friendly atmosphere. Through these events, small businesses have the opportunity to engage with a passionate audience while supporting important causes. From charity fundraising to promoting pet-friendly products, the combination of on-site catering and community engagement has made Tails & Tacos events a highlight for pet lovers.
We were especially excited to support Tails & Tacos by providing custom paper bags, non woven tote bags, and canvas tote bags that not only enhance the participant experience but also elevate the event's branding. Packaging is more than functional—it’s a way to create memorable experiences and reinforce a business’s identity. According to a recent study, 72% of Americans say that the design of a product’s packaging often influences their purchasing habits, while 67% say that the materials also impact their purchases (APS Fulfillment).
2. Event Highlights: Community Engagement in Action
Over the past year, Tails & Tacos has hosted several highly successful events. On July 30th, they held an event at Country Kennels that welcomed over 140 dogs, 300 attendees, and 30 vendors. The event raised nearly $2,000 for Animal Friends of the Valleys and The Pond Digger Ranch Wildlife Rehabilitation Center. RacetopPrint was proud to contribute custom paper bags and custom stickers for the event, helping to enhance the overall branding and create a cohesive, memorable experience for attendees.On October 8th, Tails & Tacos held another event at The Dog Society, attracting 80 dogs, 120 attendees, and five vendors, raising almost $1,000 for Shelter to Soldier and Labs and More Rescue. Again, RacetopPrint’s branded packaging provided a polished touch, making giveaways and purchases feel special while reinforcing the event’s brand identity. Their continued commitment to supporting charities through community gatherings is both inspiring and impactful. Each of these events demonstrates how thoughtful organization, attention to detail, and high-quality custom packaging can make a meaningful difference in the local community.
3. RacetopPrint’s Support: Custom Packaging That Elevates Brand Presence
At RacetopPrint, we love helping small businesses enhance their brand presence through branded packaging. For Tails & Tacos events, we provided custom bags with logo that gave each package a polished and professional look. From reusable gift bags to personalized stickers for giveaways, these custom packaging solutions add a touch of sophistication while ensuring a memorable unboxing experience.
Tails & Tacos founders David & Lacie Gaitan’s wedding was supported by RacetopPrint with gift bags and custom stickers, showcasing how our packaging solutions can elevate both personal and business events. Using high-quality printing, durable materials, and thoughtful design, we help businesses and event organizers make a lasting impression. Key elements such as color scheme, typography, materials used, design, and shape influence how consumers perceive and connect with your business. Each aspect helps create a memorable and cohesive image (Great Northern Packaging).
4. Future Collaboration: Growing Together
Looking forward, we are excited about the continued partnership with Tails & Tacos. We encourage other small businesses and pet-focused brands to get involved in these events, providing opportunities to showcase their products while supporting charitable causes. With eco-friendly packaging and thoughtfully designed custom packaging , businesses can make a positive impact on the community while enhancing their brand’s visibility.
Custom packaging is not only aesthetically pleasing but also highly functional. Custom tote bags, custom paper cups, and custom food packaging make it easy for attendees to carry their purchases or giveaways, while also serving as a walking advertisement for the brand. Durable, reusable, and visually appealing packaging helps create a professional and cohesive event experience, reinforcing the business’s commitment to quality and community engagement.
