It doesn't matter if you’re starting completely from scratch or you already know exactly what you need, our expert team can help to make your campaign a success.

Sustainable Product Consultancy

Ready to go green? Sustainability is becoming a much bigger consideration for businesses investing in branded merchandise and knowing where to start can be difficult.

We can work with you to make sure your branded merchandise and fulfilment solutions align with your CSR objectives. We offer a wide range of sustainable products, all with traceability and certification.

We can offer Carbon offsetting for every product purchased and can supply quarterly impact reports, listing your thoughtful purchases, the social value they bring and your commitment to positive change.

Merchandise Strategy & Product Presentations

Need inspiration for new merchandise or assistance in presenting your ideas to decision-makers? Arcadia is on hand to help.

We can create a visually engaging presentation for you, featuring branded products that align perfectly with your brand, free of charge.

Each new product idea will be showcased with your logo and/or message on a product visual and all the further information you’d like on specification and branding options can also be included.

New Product Showcase Events

Working with our approved supply chain, we can showcase new products at a venue or office of your choice.

Holding and testing new merchandise items helps build confidence in the products and aids the decision making process.

To make it even better, we will supply lunch and a goodie bag to all of your visitors.

 

Dedicated Account Management

All of our clients get hands-on support from a dedicated account management team who understands your brand, guidelines and goals.

Having this team behind you means you don’t need to start from scratch each time, and they’ll be proactively recommending products, supporting campaigns and keeping your branded merchandise consistent across every project.

With account management teams spanning Europe, the US, and Australia, we are able to deliver consistent service and expertise whenever and wherever you need it.

Why Work With A Branded Merchandise Consultant?

All the power of choosing the right branded merchandise can often be overlooked, but it can have a huge impact on things such as brand perception, employee engagement and campaign performance.

And the right way to select the merchandise that will help you to increase all of those metrics? By working with the experts that know the right products to choose.

Working with us gives you direct access to strategic product recommendations, industry expertise and ongoing support rather than simply choosing products from a catalogue.

We help you choose products that align with your audience, budget and branding, and actually help towards reaching your goals.
