Hello! We are Steve & Julie, founders of Blue Panda. Thank you so much for visiting us...
At the heart of Blue Panda is the idea that we can all make a difference. Our aim is to support wildlife & conservation efforts around the world by supporting a number of different charities relating to our designs. We donate 15% of our profits to charity and we are so thankful to our incredible customers for making this possible!
Welcome to Blue Panda, the home of the highest quality customised promotional products since way back in 2002!
Since then we’ve enjoyed developing our customer relationships and expanding our product range with each coming year.
We are proud of our continual growth and the evolution of our business which has lead us to where we are today.
We believe that the key components to our success have been our adaptability and responsiveness to our customers’ changing needs.
We are always here to help, to listen and to help our customers get the best out of their promotional products, whilst keeping within their presented budget.
Promotional items are one of the highest performing marketing channels and they inspire loyalty and recall of your brand or product.
At Blue Panda we know what works (and what doesn't) so we can ensure that we produce the perfect product for your campaign, event, product launch or incentive.
We work with a huge network of partners around the globe, from our valued and trusted UK suppliers to our global network of manufacturing and logistics partners.
This means our clients have peace of mind that our products, partners and processes will be faultless - every single time.
Our customers come back to us year after year, because our products are brilliant, our printing and embroidery are top-quality and our great service is always 100% dedicated to our customers’ needs.
We have always provided free artwork and consultation and we always will do. All our prices include free delivery to mainland UK addresses, and all our prices are as low as possible.
We believe in providing great service at a fair price, and all our products are sourced within our high quality approach.
The ever changing promotional market keep us on our toes and we wouldn’t have it any other way.
Please take a moment to have a look through our website where you will find information on how we work and what we can do for you.
However we always find it incredibly useful to talk through your requirements or brief, so do get in touch, we'd love to hear from you.
If this is your first venture into the world of customisation, we are here to guide you through the process, with our free artwork and advice.
If you don’t have any artwork, but you do have an idea of what you want, that’s more than enough for us! We can design your logo, or suggest ways of getting your message across in the most effective way.
Blue Panda has always been a family run company, and we pride ourselves on our strong ethical approach to business.
We really do care about our customers and want to help you succeed with your promotional campaign. We will help you choose the best route for promoting your business or campaign.
We source our products directly from the manufacturers and pride ourselves in the good relationships we maintain with them.
This in turn ensures we continue to provide a reliable and excellent service to all our customers.
Each little Blue Panda design is conceived, sketched & brought to life by our in-house artist Steve.
"I’ve always loved animals & have been drawing them as far back as I can recall, dragging wildlife encyclopedias around with me as a small child.
Rediscovering this passion as an adult brings me full circle & I love the fact that I’m able to keep the entire process in-house.
From a simple sketch I can bring the animal to life with the use of stitch types, angles & thread colour choices - embroidery digitizing is an art in itself & I absolutely love doing this part of the process.
With each design I try to capture the spirit of the animal and I hope you can feel this too."
GIVING BACK TO THE WILD
We are the brand that saves wildlife! We're super excited to be supporting Wildlife & Conservation charities around the world. Every purchase you make gives back. Together we can make a difference!
SLOW & SUSTAINABLE FASHION
We embroider & print to-order in our Bournemouth studio.
This means that we only ever create products that our lovely customers will use & wear. This helps to reduce waste & reduce our energy consumption.
Living by the sea we have always felt a strong connection to the ocean and many of our designs reflect this passion. You can see how we're influenced by the animals & the places we love, & where we feel most at home.
We're a little bit obsessed with sustainability - thinking about the entire product, where it comes from & what happens next. As individuals, all of us have an impact, & for us as a business we take this responsibility to heart. We source our products carefully, choosing organic & recycled materials whenever possible.
