Branded merchandise & packaging
Make Your Brand Something People Can Hold Onto
Packaging and merchandise do more than carry a logo. They shape the moment someone sees your product, puts on your shirt, opens an order, supports a team, or remembers an event.
Lab 111 creates branded merchandise for small businesses, teams, gyms, product brands, and organizations that want every physical touchpoint to feel like part of the brand—not an afterthought.
The opportunity
Tangible Brand Assets Create Real-World Value
The right packaging can raise perceived value before a customer even uses the product. The right merchandise can create recognition, revenue, belonging, and a reason for people to represent what you are building.
Whether you are preparing a product release, building a team collection, supplying an event, creating promotional items, or refreshing the way your business shows up in the real world, we help you make the details feel connected to a larger story.
Who this is for

This service is for you if you are:

What’s included
What’s Included
We shape packaging and merchandise around the audience, use case, and moment. Depending on the project, services may include:
- Packaging strategy and visual design direction
- Product label, box, insert, or unboxing-experience concepts
- Merchandise collection concepts and apparel design direction
- Branded items for businesses, teams, gyms, programs, and events
- Product and merchandise messaging or artwork support
- Collection naming and campaign direction
- Production-ready design coordination and vendor-ready asset preparation
- Product-launch, event, photo, video, and website recommendations that help the assets work harder
We focus on choices that support the brand and the purpose of the item. Not every product needs more packaging. Not every merch drop needs more pieces. The right concept is the one people will understand, use, and remember.
How we work
How We Work: Identify. Own. Extend.
Identify the Moment.
We start with the reason the item exists: a launch, retail moment, team season, fundraiser, community event, customer experience, or brand refresh.
Own the Moment.
We build the packaging or merchandise direction, visual system, and presentation details that make the item feel purposeful and recognizable.
Extend the Moment.
We plan for the item to travel. Packaging can prompt social sharing. Apparel can turn supporters into visible ambassadors. Event merchandise can keep the experience alive after the crowd goes home. We connect those possibilities to content, web, and activation when they matter.
Why Lab 111
Why Lab 111
Many merchandise providers are built to take an order. Lab 111 is built to help you decide what is worth ordering in the first place—and how it should support the bigger brand.
We bring strategy, design, product thinking, and real-world activation together. That helps a small business avoid generic giveaway thinking, a product brand avoid a disconnected package, and a team or event avoid merchandise that has no story behind it.
For sports and community organizations, we also understand that a physical item can carry more than a mark. It can create recognition, invite support, and give people a way to participate in the moment.

FAQ
Common Questions
Can you design packaging for a small product brand?
Yes. We can develop the packaging direction, visual system, label or package artwork, and the wider brand story around the product. We will align the work to the product’s audience, use case, and launch needs.
Can you create custom apparel for sports teams and gyms?
Yes. We create apparel and merchandise concepts for teams, gyms, athletes, schools, youth programs, and events. The goal is a collection people feel proud to wear—not simply an item with a logo placed on it.
Do you print or fulfill merchandise?
The project scope can include production coordination and vendor-ready assets. Specific printing, fulfillment, and inventory needs depend on the item and quantity. We will clarify the recommended approach before moving forward.
How do packaging and merchandise fit into a launch?
They can give a launch a tangible center: a product people can open, a team item people can wear, or an event piece people take home. We can connect the assets to your website, photo and video content, campaign, or activation so they create value beyond the first handoff.
