Corporate umbrellas for businesses: gifting, uniform and rain-day field gear

The corporate umbrella is one of the most visible pieces of recognition gifting and field uniform. It opens in the rain in front of clients, in the office parking, on an audit in the field, on the golf course during a tournament. We work with automatic, folding, golf and pocket umbrellas with screen print, embroidery or engraved handle logo, for corporates with operations in CDMX, Monterrey, Guadalajara, Querétaro, Puebla, Mérida, Tijuana, León and the rest of the country. Mexico's rainy season — May through October across most of the country with regional variations — makes the corporate umbrella a seasonal gift with high rotation.

Why the umbrella is a gift that gets used

The corporate umbrella has one particular feature that distinguishes it from other gifts: it opens in front of other people. When an employee opens the umbrella with the corporate logo in the rain in a public square, at a hotel entrance, in the office parking, the logo is visible from several metres away. That visibility turns the umbrella into a mobile advertisement the corporate pays for once and that lasts two or three rainy seasons.

The corporate umbrella we deliver is built with fibreglass or steel ribs, wood, ABS plastic or aluminium handle, and pongee, polyester or nylon fabric with waterproof treatment and UV protection. The corporate logo is applied on one or several panels via screen print, embroidery or transfer. For premium pieces the logo is engraved on the handle or on the top of the umbrella with a metal plate.

MOQ is 100 pieces for all models. For recognition or uniform programmes with annual volume above 500 pieces, we manage an open contract with seasonal purchase order and safety stock. Peak production season is April through July, before the rainy season starts; we recommend planning the order three months ahead to secure the production slot.

We invoice CFDI 4.0 with 16% IVA itemised to the SAT. For deliveries in different cities we issue CFDI per venue with Carta Porte 3.0 complement when the shipment is on our account. For corporates with IMMEX operations, we handle the temporary import pedimento when the umbrella is imported from abroad as part of a uniform.

Yes. We run production with fabric in corporate colour or in colour combination per panel. MOQ for custom colour is 200 pieces per colour.

Can you embroider the logo instead of screen print?

Yes. For premium pieces we run logo embroidery on two to four panels. Embroidery has higher durability and better image than screen print, at an additional cost of MXN 25 to 45 per piece.
