Custom Branded Bags for UK Businesses
We manufacture custom promotional bags for corporate gifting, retail packaging, and event merchandise. Our focus is exclusively on the UK market, with delivery to any address across England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland.
What We Supply
We produce custom bags in materials including cotton canvas, organic cotton, recycled polyester, jute, non-woven polypropylene, and kraft paper. Each material has specific characteristics that affect durability, print quality, and end-use suitability.
Printing options include screen printing for solid colours, heat transfer for photographic images, embroidery for textured finishes, and woven labels for subtle branding. The right method depends on your design complexity, quantity, and budget constraints.
Who This Is For
Corporate Procurement Teams
Sourcing branded merchandise for employee onboarding kits, client gifts, conference giveaways, or internal events. Typically working with defined budgets, brand guidelines, and compliance requirements.
Marketing and Events Managers
Planning product launches, trade shows, or promotional campaigns where branded bags serve as both packaging and marketing collateral. Often working to tight deadlines with specific visual requirements.
Retail and E-commerce Businesses
Needing branded carrier bags, gift bags, or packaging that reinforces brand identity at the point of purchase. May require ongoing supply with consistent quality across multiple orders.
Agencies and Resellers
Fulfilling client orders for promotional merchandise, often managing multiple projects simultaneously with varying specifications and delivery schedules.
How It Works
Initial Enquiry and Feasibility Review
You submit your requirements through the form below. We review material availability, printing feasibility, and timeline constraints. Within 1-2 business days, we confirm whether your project is something we can deliver, and if not, we explain why.
Specification and Quotation
Once feasibility is confirmed, we work with you to finalise specifications: exact dimensions, material weight, printing method, colour matching, and packaging requirements. You receive a detailed quotation including unit costs, tooling fees, shipping, and any applicable duties.
Sampling and Approval
Before production begins, we produce physical samples for your approval. This typically takes 7-10 days. You review the sample for material quality, print accuracy, and construction. Changes can be made at this stage before committing to bulk production.
Production and Quality Control
Bulk production runs 3-5 weeks depending on quantity and complexity. We conduct in-line quality checks and pre-shipment inspection. You receive production photos and inspection reports before goods are dispatched.
Delivery to UK
Shipping to UK typically takes 2-3 weeks by sea or 5-7 days by air. We handle customs clearance and deliver to your specified UK address. Total lead time from order confirmation to delivery is typically 6-8 weeks.

When It Makes Sense to Wait
Not every enquiry is ready to become an order. In our experience, projects move faster and produce better outcomes when certain conditions are in place before the first conversation.
If any of the following apply to your situation, it may be worth addressing them internally before submitting an enquiry:
- •Quantity is uncertain: If you're unsure whether you need 500 or 5,000 units, pricing and production planning become difficult. We recommend confirming at least a target range before requesting a quote.
- •Design is not finalised: Changes to artwork after production begins can cause delays and additional costs. If your design is still being developed, it's worth waiting until you have approved artwork files.
- •Budget is not allocated: Custom manufacturing requires upfront investment. If budget approval is pending, starting the quotation process may create unnecessary back-and-forth.
- •Delivery date is too soon: Our standard lead time is 6-8 weeks. If you need delivery in less than 4 weeks, we may not be able to meet your deadline without compromising quality.
- •Internal stakeholders are not aligned: If multiple people need to approve the design, material, or budget, it's helpful to have those conversations first. This avoids delays during the sampling and approval stage.
Waiting until these elements are in place typically results in faster turnaround, fewer revisions, and a smoother overall process for everyone involved.
