    Build a Curated Product Collection

    The best company stores are thoughtfully curated around the products employees are most likely to wear and use.

    Many successful stores include a balanced mix of:

    • Apparel
    • Drinkware
    • Bags
    • Everyday office or tech accessories

    Some companies prefer a smaller curated collection, while others build larger catalogs with broader product variety. Both approaches can work well depending on your employee base and store goals.

    Many companies also introduce new products throughout the year to keep their store fresh and engaging.


    Add Premium Brands Employees Recognize

    Premium retail brands can significantly improve employee excitement and participation. 

    Many companies use Launch to offer recognizable brands employees already wear and use outside of work, including Nike, Patagonia, North Face, Stanley, YETI and TUMI.

    Premium brands to offer on your company merch store

    Some premium brands may require logo approval before products can be published. The Launch team helps manage this process when needed.


    Update Products Anytime

    Your store is not locked once it launches.

    You can continue adding:

    • New apparel styles
    • Seasonal products
    • Event merchandise
    • Holiday gifts
    • Limited-time collections
    • New premium brands

    This flexibility helps companies keep their merchandise program active and engaging throughout the year.
