Product Sourcing
At Custom Box Agency, we don’t believe in cookie-cutter solutions. Every product we build is intentionally crafted, and that starts with sourcing the right components to bring your idea to life.
From high-volume promotional items to fully custom-manufactured products, we source, sample, and validate the materials, packaging, and components needed to make your product vision a reality.
Whether it’s an item you saw at a trade show, a physical representation of your methodology, or a completely new concept, our job is to find it, prototype it, and make sure it meets the mark.
What We Do
Source Products Across Categories and Industries
We find and vet suppliers across a wide range of product types from office tools and health accessories to apparel, collectibles, educational aids, tech items, packaging, and more.
Prototype and Sample Management
We coordinate sample requests, facilitate quality checks, and give you hands-on opportunities to review your product before it goes into production.
Custom Manufacturing
For product ideas that don’t yet exist, we work with our network of trusted manufacturers to prototype, iterate, and bring one-of-a-kind products to market.
Cost and Timeline Optimization
We manage vendor negotiations and logistics to ensure your products are cost-effective and timeline-aligned without compromising on quality.
Sourcing Strategy Integration
We align all sourcing decisions with your broader campaign strategy, budget, and desired customer experience.
Types of Products We Source
Promotional and branded merchandise
Recognition awards (medals, plaques, trophies, coins)
Lifestyle items (journals, apparel, wellness accessories)
Educational tools and program materials
Challenge and gamification items (trackers, tokens, badges)
Fully custom components (molded, fabricated, or assembled)
