Custom hoodies and swag for startups, from one US partner
Most startups piece swag together from three vendors: a print-on-demand site for the hoodies, a separate supplier for the PR box, and a 3PL to ship it. Teal runs all of it under one roof: design, apparel, custom printed packaging, kitting, and US fulfillment. You brief one team, approve one proof, and get one finished box on the doorstep, whether that doorstep belongs to a new hire, a candidate, an investor, or a launch-day customer. No account juggling, no mismatched turnaround dates, no designer required.
Low minimums, so you are not stuck with 500 hoodies
Seed and Series A teams rarely need pallets. Teal starts custom orders from a low 50-unit minimum, so you can print 50 branded hoodies for the founding team now and reorder as you hire. Every apparel job is quoted to your blank, size run, and print method, and volume packaging pricing starts from $0.44 per unit when you scale the box side. Browse the shop to see the mailers, rigid boxes, and inserts that pair with an apparel drop.
No designer on payroll? You do not need one
Free design help comes on every order: free artwork setup, a free dieline for any custom box, and two revision rounds. Before anything prints, you approve a free digital proof, so hoodie color, logo placement, and packaging all match your brand before a single unit runs. Because production is US-based, standard turnaround runs from about 7 business days after proof approval, with complex or high-volume orders taking longer, plus 2 to 5 business days for delivery. FSC-certified and recyclable board options are available for the packaging when sustainability is part of the pitch.
Kitting and US fulfillment for distributed teams
Remote team? Teal's West Chicago, Illinois fulfillment center handles pick-pack, kitting, and ship-to-recipient, so a hoodie, stickers, and a welcome card go out as one kit to each recipient without you touching a box. It is the same workflow whether you are shipping new-hire welcome kits, conference giveaways, investor gifts, or candidate swag that makes an offer stand out.
