A company swag store is useful when employees, customers, or event teams need a clear way to request approved merchandise without rebuilding the program for every order. The store still needs a real operating plan: what can be ordered, how it is packed, who assembles it, and where it ships. Teal Packaging provides a per-client branded store service with a custom subdomain storefront, sourced merchandise, custom packaging, kit assembly, and ship-to-recipient coordination.
Use this page when you need a branded ordering destination for a defined company program. For broader program planning, start with corporate swag. If each order should arrive as a coordinated set, review branded kits. The storefront is part of the service scope, not an invented all-purpose platform. The quote defines the merchandise, packaging, assembly, and delivery process that the storefront supports.
What the swag store service includes
Teal sets up the storefront around your brand and approved program. The store can use a custom subdomain storefront so the ordering destination feels connected to the client program. The merchandise list, packaging direction, kit requirements, and ship-to-recipient process are agreed during quoting. Store users order from that defined selection, while Teal coordinates the physical work specified in the approved scope.
- Custom subdomain storefront for the client swag program.
- Sourced merchandise selected for the quote, with decoration, garment, color, size mix, packing, and timing confirmed as choices.
- Custom packaging with free dieline design and a digital proof before print.
- Kit assembly for approved combinations of merchandise and packaging.
- Ship-to-recipient coordination using the destination details supplied for the order.
The service does not assume unquoted order-management, post-delivery, or employee-benefit functions. Tell Teal the workflow your team needs, then ask for the exact storefront and fulfillment boundaries in writing.
Plan the storefront around real buying moments
A new-hire program usually comes down to a small set of approved items, a welcome package, and a recipient address. Event programs swap that for a limited collection and a defined ship date, and customer gifting adds custom packaging with a consistent presentation. A swag store can support these cases when the store contents and physical workflow are decided together.
| Store use case | Storefront scope | Physical workflow to confirm |
|---|---|---|
| New-hire welcome | Approved apparel or drinkware choices | Kit contents, packaging, assembly, and recipient shipping |
| Event ordering | Selected items for an event or campaign | Quantity, packing method, delivery destinations, and date |
| Client gifting | Curated branded set on a client subdomain | Presentation package, proof, assembly, and address list |
| Internal company store | Defined merchandise menu for company users | Order-level packing, destination handling, and timing |
Merchandise choices are confirmed, not assumed
Teal sources the merchandise for the program. It does not present sourced tumblers or hoodies as Teal-manufactured goods. For these items, the quote and proof confirm the decoration, garment or tumbler selection, colors, size mix, packing, and timing. Availability can depend on the selected configuration, so the storefront should reflect the approved choices rather than promise an unverified stock catalog.
Custom packaging follows the same quote-led discipline. Most custom packaging starts at 50 units. Specialty rigid packaging starts at 100 or more. A storefront program may have a 50 unit packaging minimum even when individual store orders are spread across time, so ask how the initial packaging run is defined. Sourced tumblers and hoodies use a 100 unit MOQ. Pricing from about $0.44 per unit at volume applies only to qualifying custom packaging, not to the merchandise or every storefront configuration.
Pricing and timing for a branded storefront
Request a quote with the expected program quantity, initial packaging run, merchandise list, decoration direction, and recipient shipping pattern. Include whether the store will support one launch shipment or repeat orders. Teal can then separate the storefront service from the physical components and identify the cost and timing assumptions for each.
Eligible in-house work may run in about 7 business days. Specialty imported work may take about 12 weeks. These are planning ranges, not a blanket promise. The selected merchandise, packaging, quantity, decoration, and shipping plan control the final schedule. Rush work is quoted by job and adds 7 to 25 percent when available. Free US shipping is part of the stated service offer, while destination scope still needs to be confirmed.
Teal has plants in West Chicago, Illinois and Guangzhou. The quote should identify the production path for the approved packaging and the timing that follows from that choice. That keeps the storefront launch plan tied to a real physical schedule.
How to launch a swag store
- Define the audience, ordering moments, approved products, expected quantities, and target launch or arrival date.
- Share the brand assets, desired custom subdomain, packaging direction, decoration preferences, and recipient shipping process.
- Review the quote for storefront scope, merchandise sourcing, packaging MOQ, assembly, shipping, and timing.
- Approve the free dieline and digital proof before print. Confirm every item choice, including decoration, garment, colors, size mix, and packing.
- Open the agreed storefront for the intended users and use the approved process for each order.
What to put in the brief
A strong storefront brief names the people who will order, the products they can choose, and the physical result each order should produce. State whether one order equals one recipient kit or whether users can select individual items. Explain how addresses will be supplied and whether multiple destinations are expected. Include the package dimensions if known, but do not guess them when the contents are still changing. Teal can quote a packaging direction and develop a free dieline from the approved requirements.
If you need a packaged employee gift rather than a storefront, review employee welcome kits. If you need a broader merchandise strategy, visit company swag. The final store should reflect what the team can actually source, decorate, pack, and ship under the approved quote.
Start the storefront conversation
Send the audience, the products you want offered, expected quantities, and the target launch date to request a storefront quote. Teal builds each store per client on a custom subdomain and confirms merchandise, packaging, assembly, and ship-to-recipient details in the quote before the program starts.
