This Mexican-based brand called Extravirgen packages its wholesome food products in brown bag packages to promote the all-natural and organic approach to its products. All of the items created by Extravirgen are gluten-free, dairy-free and there are no products containing preservatives.

This brand relies on minimalism and simplicity to create its products. Through a collaboration with design agency 'Futura,' the [brown bag package design](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/blanco-1) was created to embody Extravirgen's simple and wholesome brand.

Using a simple and clean typographic style, the brand does not need to present a massive logo or over-sized brand name on its packaging. By taking a low-key approach, it attracts consumers who are genuinely interested in the health benefits and wholesome properties of these products. This [organic grocery line](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/north-coast-organic) contains both food and beverage items that cater to [health-conscious consumers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cleveland-kitchen1).
