Managing merch for a distributed team is messier than it looks - multiple vendors, no shared history, manual shipping to individual addresses across Europe, a process that restarts every order. SoMerch handles the full lifecycle from one platform: curated catalogue, same-day mockups, in-house production, kitting, warehousing, and EU-wide multi-address delivery. Built for remote-first and multi-country teams. Production is not outsourced - the whole chain sits under one roof.
Hey Product Hunt 👋
I have been running a printing and production company for years. We make promotional materials and corporate gifts for businesses - the full range, from product selection and print to delivery.
What I kept seeing was the same problem repeating itself. Companies would come to us with a merch project, we would execute it well, and then the next time they needed something - same company, sometimes even the same people - we would basically start from scratch. No shared history, no system on their side, no way to say "do what we did last time, but update the logo."
And when the person who had led the project internally left the company, everything they knew about how it worked left with them. The new person had nothing.
That is fine when merch is an occasional one-off. It is not fine when companies are growing, hiring across multiple countries, and need merch to reach remote employees in Germany, France, Poland, and the Netherlands on a recurring basis.
So we built SoMerch - a platform that gives companies their own system for managing this, rather than relying entirely on us to hold the institutional knowledge.
The focus is deliberately operational: proposals that travel internally for sign-off, production and printing handled in-house, warehousing for repeat fulfilment, and EU-wide multi-address shipping as the default rather than a special request.
We are early. The platform is live and the production infrastructure is real - we are not a marketplace or an aggregator, we make the things we sell. Happy to answer questions about how any of it works.

What’s onboarding like, do teams need to pre buy inventory or can you do on demand runs?
Love this, from my experience as an investor in https://www.dasmerch.com/ that's quite a big challenge you're solving. How does the process work from first contact to delivery? Do you have a standard package? Are you also taking care of sourcing? Congrats on the launch
As a developer, I never realized how much operational work sits behind conference swag until our team had to organize it ourselves
Congrats! We felt this in our engineering team pretty quickly. Sending welcome kits to remote hires across different countries created way more coordination, shipping, and logistics work than we originally expected.
This is such a real problem. Company swag sounds fun until it turns into spreadsheets, inventory questions, and multi-country shipping. Congrats on the launch!
This is actually a very real operational problem. Half of company merch knowledge lives in someone’s inbox until they quit 😄 Congrats on the launch!
