Posted By Kate Degen

Who doesn’t love a company picnic? Fresh air, good food, and some QT with your coworkers outside the cubicle. But if you ask us, there’s an even better way to add some flair to your fete—custom swag! Your employees will love tees, totes, coolers, and more that they can use after the fun is done.

14 Company Picnic Swag Ideas

  1. T-shirts

  2. How can we not kick it off with a classic t-shirt? Everyone loves a stylish tee, and putting your company logo on it makes it extra special. Not only is a custom tee something your employees can wear again and again, but it lets them show off their company pride at home, the gym, or around town—and the free advertising doesn’t hurt either! We love the American Apparel Jersey T-shirt, which is trendy, lightweight, and made from a brand you know and trust. And, it comes in a ton of great colors—we know you’ll find the perfect shade to match your brand!

  3. Sunglasses


  4. You know everyone will be grabbing for custom sunglasses! Custom shades are fun and functional for your picnic and for every day. The Two Tone Promotional Sunnies come in super fun colors that will perfectly represent your company—just add your logo or saying down the side. Maybe even consider using a hashtag! Everyone will love wearing these on their commute, to the beach, or even to next year’s company picnic!

  5. Blankets


  6. What’s a picnic without a blanket? Gift the Roll-Up Picnic Blanket for the ultimate picnic swag. It’s perfect for bringing to the park, the ball game, or hanging out in the backyard. With an easy carry handle, soft fleece top, and water resistant bottom, it’s a great giveaway for outdoorsy employees or anyone who enjoys curling up on a blanket with a good book.

  7. Coolers


  8. Elevate your employees’ brown bag lunch with custom coolers for everyone! Our KOOZIE® Contrast 6 Can Lunch Cooler is simple, versatile, and the perfect way to bring lunch in style. It even has a front pocket! We have tons of great colors that are sure to complement your company’s branding.

  9. Quarter zips


  10. Quarter zips are a thoughtful and luxurious swag items that your employees will love. They’re perfect for keeping at the office for when the AC gets a little too chilly, or for wearing to the gym or around the house. An understated logo on the chest of a Sport-Tek Premium Quarter Zip (it comes in ladies and mens!) makes these a classy keepsake that they’ll wear everywhere.

  11. Water bottles


  12. Hanging around the water cooler is about to get way more fun with custom water bottles for your whole staff! Not only are reusable water bottles eco-friendly, but they’ll help your employees stay hydrated all day long. We have tons of water bottle styles but a sure fan favorite is our 20 oz CamelBak Stainless Steel Chute. The sleek look says “premium swag,” and it will keep your drinks cold for 24 hours and hot for 8 hours!

  13. Lip balms


  14. A small swag item that exudes quality? Custom SPF15 Lip Balm! Employees will love having this balm on their desk to cure dry lips any season. They’ll also have some serious nostalgia for the fun flavors—pick from cherry, watermelon, bubblegum, and more!

  15. Umbrellas


  16. The picnic will go on, rain or shine—so customize umbrellas for your whole group! It can be hard to find the perfect umbrella but a one-of-a-kind company Pro-Am 60″ Golf Umbrella is sure to do the trick! We love the fun stripes of colors that make even a rainy day seem a little more sunny. Pick your company hue and customize it for everyone!

  17. Notebooks


  18. Who doesn’t get excited by a fancy notebook? We know we do! Give your employees a premium Charlotte Bound Notebook that they’ll love using at their desk or taking to meetings. The smooth leather textured notebook is resilient and stylish, and will look perfect with your company logo on the front!

  19. Coffee mugs

  22. Ear buds are a super cool swag piece that are useful, too. Your crew can wear them as they commute, at the gym, or at their desk if they’re really trying to concentrate. Our Bustle Bluetooth Earbuds come in fun colors and are easy to customize with your logo. And, these buds have built in music control and a mic make them perfect for on the go!

  23. Foldable chairs


  24. Custom Captain’s Folding Chairs are swag items that’ll give everyone a seat at the table! We love the cupholders on this chair, and how easy it is to tote to the park or beach with its carrying bag. Each time your employees take a seat, they’ll think of how much fun they had at the company picnic!
