Welcome people with more than a box of logos
The best employee swag reflects how a company wants people to feel. A welcome kit might remove first-day friction. A milestone gift can recognize real contribution. A team launch can create shared energy across offices and time zones. Product selection should begin with that moment, not with a generic catalog.
Kept connects creative direction, product curation, sizing, packaging, address collection, assembly, and delivery. The result is a repeatable program that still feels considered when it reaches an individual employee.
Support built around the whole program

Employee swag and new hire kit FAQs
What should go in a new hire swag kit?
A useful new hire swag kit starts with the employee and the onboarding moment. Depending on the role, location, budget, and company culture, it may combine apparel or everyday goods with practical work materials, a personal welcome, and packaging designed for safe delivery.
Can Kept ship new hire kits as employees start?
Yes. Ongoing programs can be designed around recurring individual shipments, planned onboarding groups, or office deliveries depending on hiring volume and inventory strategy.
Can employees choose sizes or products?
Yes. Size collection, product choice, redemption, or store-based selection can be incorporated when it improves the experience and fits the program requirements.
Can kits be delivered internationally?
Yes. International programs require planning around product restrictions, customs, duties, delivery timelines, and address quality. We recommend the most workable approach for the destination mix.
Do you offer more responsible product options?
Yes. We consider usefulness, materials, packaging, supplier practices, quantities, and available certifications, then help teams make informed choices within their budget.
