Abstract: The invention provides a bag dispenser comprising a container having a back plate intended to be attached to a vertical surface, and a cover which can be opened for loading the container with a plurality of bags and which has an opening through which the bags can be dispensed one after the other. A dividing member is provided within the container around which dividing member the bags can be folded, and the cover is hinged to the bottom of the back plate during loading of the container, whereby the bags become folded around the dividing member by the cover as the cover is closed. The invention also provides a method of dispensing bags one after the other from the container, the bags being loaded into the container so that they hang substantially vertically of the back plate, and folded around the dividing member by the step of closing the cover.
