What Is A Company Store

Company Stores are online stores that are designed, built and curated for a specific company instead of the general public. Businesses of all types utilize company stores for a variety of reasons. They are used to maintain strict brand standards throughout an organization, as a resource for employee rewards, and as the source for company branded apparel and promotional products.

Typical Products

Typical Products in company stores can include branded apparel, drink ware, bags, golf or sports products, office and desktop items, writing instruments, seasonal items, and recognition rewards.

Types of Company Stores
