This research was made to redesign the packing of Burayot, a typical snack from Garut. Food packaging, in addition to serving as a food protector, can also be a medium for communicating related food product information, brand, positioning and product differentiation. Burayot is a typical snack of Garut made from raw rice flour, brown sugar and coconut milk. In its development appeared other flavors, such as pandanus, black rice, menthol, strawberries, sesame and cheese. Generally, families in the area of Leles Garut can make burayot, but not every family sells it as commercial product. There are some small medium enterprises (SME) that produce burayot as commercial snack with different brands, such as Mak Ijoh, Saboga and Bu Lilis. However, those SMES haven’t made packaging design as one of their concern in doing their business, yet. Saboga has fairly good sales distribution, the products can be easily found in several gift shops in Garut and Bandung. But, as mentioned before, this brand has not been considering the packaging design. Its packaging hasn’t shown strong visual identities to distinguish it from other products, and it also hasn’t contained information needed for a packaging. This research method is qualitative by using experimental approach in the form of packaging design through design stages, visual studies and visual styling. Several trials of packaging materials are constrained by the content of cooking oil in the burayot confectionery that is widely absorbed in paper materials. The addition of paper material to the packaging structure has not been successful, so the experiment focuses more on the packaging label appearance. The results of this study are expected to help SME producers, especially Sabay burayot snacks can have packaging with a strong identity and clear information, so that consumers are easier to distinguish with other gifts.

SMEs are considered to be the spine of the Indian economic structure which has on a continuous basis proved to be the bulwark of the country‟s economy, providing it the resilience to ward of economic shocks and the sustaining capacity in many financial adversities and calamities. These have relentlessly contributed to the overall growth of national GDP and also has generated employment to millions and export to the worldwide economy. While, SMEs are the engines of development in the current scenario, their growth is hindered by factors like low capital basis, availability of low-cost credit, poor technology, lack of quality and sufficiency in material and human resources, infrastructural constraints, lack of market awareness, globalization of trade, increasing competition and timely restructuring when stressed.
