We began working with Specialized in 2009 producing a range of ad-hoc promotional merchandise including branded t-shirts, pens, wristbands and keyrings. The success of this relationship has now led to the creation of an online merchandise store enabling Specialized dealers in the UK to purchase promotional merchandise for product launches and events in the UK.
Specialized rely on a dealer network in the UK to sell and distribute their products and accessories. For this reason, it is extremely important to constantly look at ways to improve the service offering to dealers so that their dealer network could easily order a wide range of promotional merchandise, all from one place. The promotional merchandise range was selected by Specialized by working closely with one of our Account Managers, Lesley, to ensure the right products were chosen.
Emily Hamilton, Event Manager at Specialized, said “The site has created a great marketing tool to support our dealer network, helping them to provide great merchandise for their own store events and store giveaways. The site has helped to create a high level of service to all our dealers in the UK.”

After an 8 month tender process which included a number of presentations and a full sample range, we were recently announced as the new supplier to Warwick University for all their corporate wear requirements for the next three years.
This includes five departments within the university including Accommodation, Conferences and Exhibitions and the Warwick Arts Centre. This project includes the design of an online ordering system for Warwick University so that employees can go online and place an order for all their uniform needs. We will be working closely with each university department to ensure the right clothing is selected to suit individual requirements, a consultative approach which we undertake with all our clients to ensure a practical and consistent approach to uniform supply.
To discuss your uniform requirements with one of our Account Managers please call 08707 500057 or alternatively e-mail info@creativeemporium.co.uk
