Provided are pouches with rigid handles and/or internal supports and methods of making such pouches. In one aspect, a pouch with internal support includes a flexible pouch including a fitment coupled to a flexible pouch body and at least one inner support piece coupled to the fitment and extending into the inside of the pouch through the interior of the fitment. The fitment includes a fitment inner engagement feature and the at least one inner support piece includes an inner support engagement feature and at least one inner support extending from the inner support engagement feature. The fitment inner engagement feature and inner support engagement feature are interlocked to keep the at least one inner support piece from falling into or out of the flexible pouch body.

1. A bottle pouch with a handle and an integrated fitment and handle piece comprising: a flexible pouch in the shape of a bottle forming a flexible pouch body with a handle region formed from a cut-out in the flexible pouch body including a combined fitment and handle piece coupled to the flexible pouch body, wherein the combined fitment and handle piece includes a rigid handle portion extending from the combined fitment and handle piece, andwherein the combined fitment and handle piece are unitary, andwherein the handle region of the flexible pouch body is reinforced by the rigid handle portion by being adjacent to the handle region and internal in its entirety to the interior of the contents cavity of the flexible pouch body,wherein the rigid handle portion is slid into a portion of the flexible pouch adjacent to the handle region and increases the rigidity in the handle region of the bottle pouch with the proviso that the rigid handle portion is not sealed to the handle region of the flexible pouch body. 2. The bottle pouch of claim 1, wherein the rigid handle portion includes one rigid internal support member for the handle region. 3. The bottle pouch of claim 2, wherein the rigid handle portion includes a second rigid internal support member for the handle region. 4. The bottle pouch of claim 1, wherein the combined fitment and handle piece are coupled to the flexible pouch body via an adhesive seal, an ultrasonic seal or a heat seal at the fitment. 5. The bottle pouch of claim 1, wherein the combined fitment and handle piece is a rigid material that is greater in stiffness relative to the flexible pouch body. 6. The bottle pouch of claim 5, wherein the rigid material is selected from the group consisting of metal, glass, ceramic, wood, polypropylene, polystyrene, polyester, nylon, polyethylene, polyhydroxyalkanoate, polylactic acid, polyester from sugar cane or corn derived ethanol and molded pulp. 7. A bottle pouch with a handle and an integrated fitment, handle piece and inner support piece comprising: a flexible pouch in the shape of a bottle forming a flexible pouch body with a handle region formed from a cut-out in the flexible pouch body including a combined fitment, handle piece and inner support piece coupled to the flexible pouch body, wherein the combined fitment, handle piece and inner support piece includes a rigid handle portion and at least one rigid inner support extending from the combined fitment, handle piece and inner support piece,wherein the combined fitment, handle piece and inner support piece are unitary, andwherein the handle region of the flexible pouch body is reinforced by the rigid handle portion by being adjacent to the handle region and internal in its entirety to the interior of the contents cavity of the flexible pouch body,wherein the rigid handle portion and at least one rigid inner support are slid into a portion of the flexible pouch adjacent to the handle region and the rigid handle portion increases the rigidity in the handle region of the bottle pouch with the proviso that the rigid handle portion is not sealed to the handle region of the flexible pouch body. 8. The bottle pouch of claim 7, wherein the rigid handle portion includes one rigid internal support member for the handle region. 9. The bottle pouch of claim 8, wherein the rigid handle portion includes a second rigid internal support member for the handle region. 10. The bottle pouch of claim 7, wherein the combined fitment, handle piece and inner support piece are coupled to the flexible pouch body via an adhesive seal, an ultrasonic seal or a heat seal at the fitment. 11. The bottle pouch of claim 7, wherein the combined fitment, handle piece and inner support piece is a rigid material that is greater in stiffness relative to the flexible pouch body. 12. The bottle pouch of claim 11, wherein the rigid material is selected from the group consisting of metal, glass, ceramic, wood, polypropylene, polystyrene, polyester, nylon, polyethylene, polyhydroxyalkanoate, polylactic acid, polyester from sugar cane or corn derived ethanol and molded pulp. 13. The bottle pouch of claim 7, wherein the at least one rigid inner support is internal to the flexible pouch body and increases the rigidity of a front wall of the bottle pouch. 14. The bottle pouch of claim 13, wherein the combined fitment, handle piece and inner support piece further reinforces at least one portion of the flexible pouch body selected from the group consisting of a side wall, a side edge, a bottom edge, a top edge, a bottom wall and combinations thereof.
