Some people fall into merch. We fell in love with it.
OUR STORY
It all started in childhood — collecting Coca-Cola and Pepsi bottle caps and trading them in for rare promo items, building complete collections of Nescafé mugs.
The kind of things that made hearts race and shelves sparkle. Those early memories weren’t just fun — they planted a seed.
Years later, that seed grew into a career in marketing and branded merchandise. I started out working at an advertising agency in Europe — and then came the moment that changed everything.
Stepping into my very first trade show, I found myself surrounded by custom mugs, notebooks, tote bags — and endless possibilities. It was the realization that merch wasn’t just for the world’s biggest brands. It could be created for anyone — for every story, every message, every company.
That discovery led to years of experience in the world of promotional products and corporate gifting — from helping brands build meaningful connections through custom kits, to leading large-scale merch campaigns across industries and regions.
Fun fact: Our first large-scale merch order was for a company that builds trucks. The order was so massive, we literally filled their own trucks with branded gear. That’s when we knew — we were in the right business.
In 2020, that passion became Steisy Merch, launched in Washington, D.C. with a global mindset and a boutique approach. We brought together a small, trusted team of creatives, a deep understanding of brand storytelling, and a drive to deliver not just products — but moments of delight.
As demand grew, so did we — expanding our presence to Seattle, where we now serve clients across North America and beyond. We help organizations express who they are through gifts and merchandise that truly resonate. We believe in the power of well-made things. Thoughtful things. Branded things with heart.
