What the heck is going on with Tariffs? What steps is your company taking to avoid higher costs on swag, apparel, and event materials? New tariff increases on Chinese imports, along with upcoming tariffs on goods from Canada and Mexico, are set to drive up costs across our industry and many others. Price increases are expected to impact a wide range of branded merchandise including promotional products, custom apparel, event materials, recognition items, and business printing. How can you stay ahead of these changes? • Take advantage of bulk pricing. Larger orders often qualify for deeper discounts - ask about price breaks to maximize your budget. • Plan your branded merchandise for the full year. Lock in pricing now for upcoming events, gifting programs, and company store items. • Ask about alternative products. We can recommend similar, cost-effective items that fit your brand and budget. • Consider domestic production options. We source from multiple countries and U.S. suppliers to provide reliable alternatives and shorter lead times. • Bundle orders for savings. Combine multiple needs into one order to streamline costs and reducing shipping costs. • Use a company store to streamline swag distribution. Keep stocked items on hand for quick, cost-effective fulfillment throughout the year. • Explore multi-location fulfillment. We can help you ship directly to offices, employees, and event locations to save on logistics. • Ask about special offers on trending products. We keep an eye on supplier deals to help you get the most value. With pricing shifts on the horizon, strategic planning is more important than ever. Let us help you navigate these changes while keeping your swag budget in check.
