Employee Swag Your Team Will Actually Want to Use

Employee Swag

From new-hire kits and branded apparel to recognition gifts and ongoing employee merchandise programs, Monarch73 manages sourcing, branding, kitting, storage and delivery — all through one partner.

Turn Company Merchandise Into Part of the Employee Experience

Great employee swag should feel like something your team chose — not something they were handed.

Whether you're welcoming a new hire, recognizing a milestone, outfitting a team or building an ongoing merchandise program, we help create branded products employees are excited to receive, wear and use.

From product selection and decoration to custom packaging, inventory management and individual shipping, Monarch73 manages the entire program.

Make Day One Feel Like Day One

A great onboarding experience starts before a new employee opens their laptop.

Monarch73 creates branded welcome kits that help new hires feel connected to the company from the beginning. We can produce and store your merchandise, assemble each kit as employees are hired, and ship directly to their home or office.

You send us the recipient information. We handle the rest.

Frequently asked questions

Can you ship employee swag directly to individual employees?

Yes. Monarch73 can assemble, address and ship employee kits directly to individual homes or offices. We can also warehouse inventory for ongoing programs, allowing new-hire, recognition and other employee kits to ship as they are requested.

Can employees choose their own size or merchandise?

They can. For programs where sizing or choice matters — apparel especially — we set up a branded employee store: a private online storefront carrying the items you have approved, at the specifications you have approved, so nobody is ordering off-brand.

Employees select and size themselves, orders draw down the inventory we hold for you, and each one ships to the address given. You see what has been ordered and by whom without collecting a single spreadsheet of sizes.

Can you handle kitting and fulfillment for our onboarding or event program?

Yes. Kitting is one of our core capabilities. We receive the individual products at our facility, assemble them into branded kits per your specification, and ship them to a single destination or to individual addresses.

A typical welcome kit might include a branded t-shirt, notebook, tumbler, pen and personalized welcome card — all assembled in a branded box with tissue paper and a sticker seal. The process, documentation and quality standards are the same at every scale, from a few hundred employee swag boxes to more than 3,000 individually assembled and shipped gifts for Spotify for Artists across three continents.

What is the minimum order quantity?

Minimum quantities vary depending on the product, decoration method and level of customization. Some programs can begin with relatively small quantities, while fully custom or factory-direct products may require higher minimums.

Tell us what you’re looking to create, your approximate quantity and budget, and we’ll recommend options that fit your program.

Can you manage our ongoing branded merchandise program?

Yes. Monarch73 can manage recurring merchandise programs that include product sourcing, stored inventory, replenishment, kitting, individual fulfillment and distribution, on a dedicated product catalog at pre-negotiated pricing.

Instead of coordinating multiple vendors, inventory locations and shipments, your team has one merchandise partner managing the program from production through delivery — and can focus on how the merchandise is used rather than on how it is sourced.
