Member welcome kits
Reusable bottle, branded notebook, lanyard, key-tag and a small surprise item. Build the kit per tier (hot desk, dedicated desk, private office) and let the upsell tell itself.
Flexible offices

A co-working operator in Mexico City is selling a feeling as much as a desk. The merch has to be quiet enough not to compete with a member's own brand, but distinctive enough that a member uses it in public. The roster of physical locations usually outpaces the merch programme: a brand that looks polished in Polanco has to feel equally polished in a newer location in Garza García or Mérida without forcing every building through the same artwork.
Most co-working operators run three merch cycles per year — a member welcome refresh in January, a community programme push in May, and a tenant-retention drop around September. The merch brief is always the same: low unit cost, high utility, instant brand recognition, zero customs friction.

Tote bags, t-shirts and caps for member-only events, demo nights and community partner meetups. The numbers are small but the goodwill compounds.
Bottled water labels, branded coffee cups, snack packaging for the communal pantry. Branded loosely — the goal is consistency, not hard-sell.
Year-end gifts and renewal thank-yous for long-staying members. Higher unit cost, lower volume, longer lead time.
Co-working operators in Mexico are typically Régimen General de Ley (Personas Morales), which means they recover IVA 16% on merch expenses against their monthly declaración. The supplier should stamp the CFDI 4.0 with uso de CFDI G03 and the operator's RFC. Imported merchandise triggers the CFDI de comercio exterior 1.1 plus the customs file; USMCA-origin goods clear with zero IGI on most apparel categories, which is helpful when the merchandise comes from a US-based blank supplier.
Distributing merch to a dozen buildings across CDMX and the Bajío is a logistics exercise, not a printing exercise. Use a 3PL that handles cross-dock consolidation — produce once, store in a single warehouse, ship in waves. Plan the wave plan around building manager schedules (many buildings do not accept courier deliveries between 10:00 and 16:00) and avoid Semana Santa entirely for inbound freight.
For screen-printed apparel, 50 pieces per colour is a workable minimum. Embroidery has a similar minimum but a higher setup cost. For non-apparel items like bottles or notebooks, 100 is a more honest minimum.
Yes, but only after the master brand book is locked. Add a building-name line, a city line, or a small icon variation without re-cutting the brand mark.
Run that as a separate workstream with a US-based fulfilment partner. Cross-border merch shipments are a tax-and-customs project on their own.
No. Corp-Merch is an independent external supplier that prepares merch for operators. It does not represent any co-working brand.
Corp-Merch is an independent external supplier. Co-working merch programmes must respect the brand book and procurement framework of each operator; confirm the licensing and artwork approvals before production.
