3 Summer Events Perfect for Custom-Ordered Merch Tailored to Your Brand

· 2 min read

Summer is event season. Communities from coast to coast are hosting events of all kinds, from weekend street markets to neighborhood block parties. Many of these events are the perfect way for small independent businesses and boutique brands to get their names out there.

A street market is one example where a local independent business can set up a stall to sell their wares (or advertise their services) alongside branded gear, like custom snapback baseball hats featuring their logo. It’s also an opportunity to do a promotional giveaway!

Here are a few summer events that are ideal for showcasing your brand with custom merch.

Weekend Street Markets

Weekend street markets, including farmers markets and art fairs, are a great place to showcase your business and get your brand in front of a wider, but still local, audience. It can be as simple as setting up a booth or stall (in accordance with market rules, of course), complete with an eye-catching stand full of branded custom merch, like snapback hats and shirts with your logos, paired with your business’s normal offerings.

Neighborhood Block Parties

Summer is a great time for neighborhood businesses and boutiques to get together for a block party (while adhering to city rules, of course). Some cities let businesses temporarily close the street for this type of event. All the involved businesses blast their socials with invites and post fliers on their doors to get the word out. Design custom snapback hats and apparel to sell or give away to promote your business during the event, provide some tasty treats (perhaps a food truck or three), blast some tunes (maybe bring in a local musician), and you’re set!

Customer Appreciation Events

Customer appreciation events and open houses are like block parties, but on a smaller, more contained scale. Open up your business after hours to your loyal customers and the general public. Offer food, games, and promotional merch (custom hats, T-shirts, water bottles, etc.), and you’re sure to attract a crowd, all while building brand recognition.

About SNAG®

Scott Abbey’s journey to creating SNAG® started with a love of vintage-style hats. The craftsmanship was captivating, and the small snags in the hats sparked an idea in 2016. He founded SNAG three years later to create high-quality, vintage-inspired caps for businesses and individuals. These custom-designed blank vintage snapback hats are perfect for merch, special events, family reunions, corporate retreats, or as an addition to your personal collection. Whether you need hats for a dozen people or hundreds, SNAG can make it happen.
