In the world of event planning and branding, time is often the most critical factor. When a client approached us with a seemingly impossible task, we knew it was an opportunity to showcase our expertise in corporate swag fulfillment and global logistics for printed materials. Here’s the story of how we turned a tight deadline into a seamless success story.
Our client was organizing a high-profile event spanning multiple locations across the UK. With just days to go, they realized they needed a significant amount of branded merchandise – 800 units of custom tote bags, pens, and diaries—to enhance the event experience. However, their usual vendors were unable to fulfill the order within the tight timeframe. That’s when they turned to Hue Marcom, a trusted branded merchandise supplier known for fast turnarounds and global shipping solutions.
From the very first call, we understood the gravity of the situation. The client needed more than just a vendor; they needed a partner who could deliver high-quality customized employee onboarding kits and corporate merchandise under pressure. At Hue Marcom, we specialize in sustainable print and packaging solutions, and this was the perfect opportunity to demonstrate our ability to handle urgent orders efficiently.
Within just four hours of receiving the inquiry, we had a solid plan in place. Here’s how we did it:
✅ Rapid Mock-Ups and Quotes – We immediately created digital previews and provided detailed cost estimates, ensuring the client had full visibility into the custom university welcome kits and corporate gifts they were about to receive.
✅ Double-Shift Production – Our team worked in double shifts over the weekend to ensure that production timelines were met without compromising the quality of any ongoing orders.
✅ Seamless Global Logistics – Leveraging our expertise in global logistics for printed materials, we collaborated with DHL at the country level to arrange pre-clearance for 500 kg of branded merchandise, eliminating potential customs delays.
📍 Friday – We received the official order confirmation.
📍 Tuesday – The first shipment of merchandise was ready and dispatched.
📍 Wednesday – The second shipment was sent, ensuring all items arrived on time for the event.
Thanks to our meticulous planning and execution, the client received all 800 units of branded merchandise in perfect condition and on time. The event was a resounding success, and the client praised Hue Marcom’s efficiency in delivering high-quality, custom-branded materials under an extremely tight deadline.
At Hue Marcom, we don’t just ship branded merchandise—we deliver seamless experiences. Whether you need customized employee onboarding kits, corporate swag fulfillment, or sustainable print and packaging solutions, our expertise ensures your brand gets the attention it deserves—on time, every time.
