Auditorio Black Beri: corporate merch operations at one of Mexico City's most technically-resolved venues

We work with corporates in Mexico City, Guadalajara, Monterrey, Querétaro and Puebla to produce, deliver and install the full operation. MOQ from 100 pieces.

Merch delivery is coordinated with the corporate Production team and the venue maître d', with inventory reconciliation against the packing list, temporary storage in the backstage warehouse, distribution to dressing rooms, VIP table, booth and press with assigned staff per front.

Invoicing is issued through CFDI 4.0 to SAT with 16% VAT breakdown, ISR withholding when applicable for taxed gifts, and deduction support as a Public Relations or Training expense based on the corporate's line of business.

Typical use cases at Auditorio Black Beri

Auditorio Black Beri typically hosts five corporate event profiles: annual shareholder assembly with 600 to 900 attendees (CEMEX, Bimbo, Femsa, Arca Continental, Alsea profiles), brand launch with 400 to 700 attendees (beverage, automotive, banking profiles), annual convention with 800 to 1,200 attendees (insurance, pharma, telecom profiles), awards ceremony with 300 to 500 attendees (sector awards, supplier recognition), and gala with simultaneous English or Russian translation for 250 to 400 guests.

For each event profile we run a specific merch kit: shareholder kit with executive folder and protocol gift; launch kit with fabric tote, t-shirt, thermos and tech gift; convention kit with credential, programme, pen and recognition gift; awards kit with trophy, certificate and personalised gift; gala kit with diplomatic gift and dress code defined by protocol. For corporates with USMCA operations we also deliver in USD with invoicing in MXN at the Banco de México exchange rate of the day, and IMMEX deduction support when the event ties to a plant-floor talent retention programme.
