Building culture is easy when everyone shares an office. When your team is spread across a dozen states, it takes a little more intention, and a well-designed swag kit landing on a new hire's doorstep is one of the simplest, most memorable ways to make someone feel like part of the crew.
The catch is logistics. Ordering, packing, and shipping branded gear to individual home addresses can eat up a whole workday if you do it yourself. Here is how to do it the easy way.
Start with a kit that feels intentional
The best remote swag kits mix something useful, something wearable, and something fun. A popular combination is a soft branded t-shirt or hoodie, an insulated tumbler or water bottle, a quality notebook and pen, and a sheet of stickers, all packed in a clean branded box with tissue paper. It should feel like unwrapping a gift, not opening a supply order.
Not sure what to include? Our team helps you build kits to a per-box budget, whether that is $25 or $75 a person. We have access to more than 2 million products, so we can hit almost any price point and style.
What is kitting and fulfillment?
Kitting means we assemble all the individual items into one packaged kit, so each box is complete and ready to go. Fulfillment means we store, pack, and ship those kits, either all at once to your office or one at a time directly to each employee's home address as you send us names.
This is the part that saves you the most time. Instead of receiving a pallet of loose products and spending your afternoon stuffing boxes, you hand us a spreadsheet of addresses and we handle the shipping. New hire starts next week in Denver? Send us the address and the kit shows up at their door.
Shipping to home addresses, nationwide
We ship across the entire United States from Sarasota, Florida. Whether your people are in Tampa or Seattle, the same kit arrives looking sharp. For ongoing needs, many companies keep a stock of pre-built kits with us and simply request a shipment whenever someone new joins, so onboarding swag is never a scramble.
A few tips that make it smoother
Order apparel in a smart size spread, or collect sizes during onboarding so shirts actually fit. Keep a small buffer of extra kits on hand for last-minute hires. And lock in your kit design once so every employee gets a consistent, on-brand experience. We send a free digital proof before anything is produced, so you always see exactly how your logo looks first.
As a veteran-owned business, we are big on taking care of your people, and a great welcome kit does exactly that. Standard production runs about 5 to 10 business days, and we will build a plan around your headcount and timing.
