Bora Bora Foods' brand identity is the work of the Aurea Design team. Based in China, the family-owned food brand has been a distributor of [artisanal teas and snacks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/und) for over 80 years. Referencing the aesthetic of historic Chinese packaging, Aurea Design creates a collection of colorful tins that are reminiscent of retro lunch boxes and decorative containers.

Whether housing [teas, soups](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/specialty-products) or other Bora Bora Foods essentials, these tins range from lunchbox-shaped containers to compact tins. Varying in size, shape and color scheme, the tins embody an old world aesthetic and stay true to the brand's family-focused values. A household name among many living in China, Bora Bora Foods reinvents its image with [contemporary tin packaging](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nice-cans) that is an homage to the company's past successes and longevity.
