  • Side gusset: Side gusset bags and pouches are less box-shaped than most bottom gusset pouches, which means they usually take up less space on the shelf. Overall, side gusset bags still provide plenty of canvas space for displaying and marketing your brand – it mostly comes down to personal preference.
