Corporate Gear

What Corporate Gear does

Corporate Gear is a privately held B2B promotional merchandise company headquartered in East Providence, Rhode Island, that sells customized premium-brand apparel and accessories to corporate clients. Its product assortment is built around customization rights with nine consumer brands — Peter Millar, Patagonia, Nike, YETI, The North Face, Helly Hansen, Knack, Bogg Bags, and Save The Duck — organized on the website as brand-specific sub-collections. The primary customer segment is businesses procuring employee uniforms, corporate apparel, client gifts, golf gear, branded accessories, and merchandise for company events; the sales motion is described as direct-to-consumer through the company's own e-commerce storefront supplemented by phone sales.

The company's core technical capability is in-house decoration: embroidery, printing, and laser engraving, performed on the premium-brand products it resells. Corporate Gear functions as a value-added reseller and decorator rather than a manufacturer — it sources branded blanks from its supplier partners and applies client logos in-house. The product platform is organized so that each premium brand is browsable as its own collection (e.g., YETI Custom Drinkware, Knack Custom Bags, Patagonia Custom Apparel), with logo and decoration options configured per product. There are no disclosed APIs, software integrations, mobile applications, or proprietary software products.

The business model is transactional: per-unit pricing on each order, pay-as-you-go billing, free logo and proof on all orders, and free shipping on orders exceeding $4,000. Revenue mechanics are one-time sales of customized merchandise, with no subscription, licensing, or recurring revenue component disclosed. No parent company, PE/VC investors, acquisitions, funding rounds, or executive leadership details were identified in the available data, and operating geography is limited to the United States. The company is reported as operating with 51–100 employees.
