Loyalty programme merch, store-staff uniforms, seasonal campaign items, gift-with-purchase, e-commerce unboxing kits and store-event giveaways for the leading retail chains in Belgrade, Novi Sad and the regional markets — produced in Belgrade and Novi Sad, billed with PDV 20% in RSD.
Serbian retail spans the leading supermarket and FMCG chains (Delhaize Serbia / Maxi, Mercator / Idea, Lidl Serbia, Gomex, Univerexport, DIS, Aroma, PerSu, Tempo, Metro), the fashion and footwear chains (Fashion&Friends, N Sport, Planika, ZARA, H&M, Reserved, Sinsay, C&A, LC Waikiki, Pepco), the beauty and personal-care chains (Lilly, dm drogerie, Sephora), the electronics chains (Gigatron, Tehnomanija, WinWin, ePlaneta), and the e-commerce and direct-to-consumer brands (Limundo, Kupindo, Ananas, Shoppster.rs, the regional marketplace tier).
Merch programmes in the retail sector split into four recurring workstreams. The first is loyalty programme merch — branded merchandise redeemable as loyalty points across the chain's loyalty programme catalogue, including tote bags, drinkware, picnic sets, branded confectionery, premium wireless speakers, and the seasonal gift-with-purchase tier. The second is store-staff uniforms — branded aprons, polos, button shirts, name tags, lanyards — produced to the chain's colour set, visual identity, and Pantone, with sizing runs absorbed into the lead time.
The third is seasonal campaign merch — back-to-school, summer, Black Friday, Christmas, Serbian Slava-tier campaigns — produced in high-volume silkscreen or DTF runs with capacity reserved at our Belgrade and Novi Sad partners for the campaign windows. The fourth is e-commerce unboxing and store-event merch — branded tissue paper, stickers, branded tape, gift-with-purchase items, store-event giveaways — produced at the SKU level for the chain's e-commerce fulfilment.
Branded merchandise redeemable as loyalty points across the chain's loyalty programme — tote bags, drinkware, picnic sets, branded confectionery, premium wireless speakers, premium coffee sets, leather passport covers, and the seasonal gift-with-purchase tier. Production runs consolidated to monthly batches per the loyalty programme's redemption calendar, with capacity reserved at our Belgrade and Novi Sad partners for the spring, summer, and pre-holiday windows.
Branded aprons (cotton or poly-cotton), polos (180–220 GSM cotton), button-down shirts, jackets, name tags, lanyards — produced in the chain's Pantone and visual identity, with sizing runs absorbed into the lead time. For retail front-of-house the embroidery is usually on the chest and the back of the apron; for back-of-house it is on the chest only. Stock-blank-led with the PO held at the chain's central warehouse.
Branded tote bags, caps, T-shirts, water bottles, small hardgoods — produced in the chain's colour set and visual identity, with high-volume silkscreen or DTF decoration, capacity reserved at our Belgrade and Novi Sad partners for the back-to-school (August), Black Friday (November), and pre-Christmas (December) campaign windows. The seasonal runs typically scale from 5,000 to 50,000 units per chain.
Branded tissue paper, stickers, branded tape, gift-with-purchase items, store-event giveaways — produced at the SKU level for the chain's e-commerce fulfilment, with consolidation at the central warehouse for the e-commerce order. For store events (anniversary sales, opening of new locations, pop-up events) the merch is held at the store and handed out to the qualifying customer.
Serbian retail operates under the Consumer Protection Law (Zakon o zaštiti potrošača), the Trade Law (Zakon o trgovini) and the Serbian Chamber of Commerce (Privredna komora Srbije, PKS) Trade Section. Food-contact items in supermarket chains follow the food-grade packaging rules; gift-with-purchase items follow the marketing-claim rules; loyalty programme redemptions follow the loyalty programme's documented redemption rules.
For loyalty programme merch we hold redemption sub-ledger documentation (purchase order, warehouse receipt, redemption fulfilment, reconciliation notes) and attach the packet to the chain's annual audit cycle. For store-staff uniforms we work to OEKO-TEX 100 on the base textile and supply certificate copies on request. For seasonal campaign merch, the high-volume silkscreen or DTF runs are produced with capacity reserved at the campaign window and a 50–200 unit pilot before the campaign goes live.
Currency and payment are quoted in RSD by default with EUR conversion on the invoice at the NBS middle rate on the day of issue. Retail-chain clients that invoice through the chain's central procurement office can use the standard 30/70 milestone structure: 30% on order confirmation, 70% on pre-delivery inspection. For seasonal campaign runs with the central procurement office the structure is sometimes 50/50 with net-30 settlement, or net-15 for the September Black Friday window.
Indicative Belgrade-and-Novi-Sad production pricing for the standard retail tiers. Per-piece cost, decoration included, before PDV 20%. The ranges reflect current stock blanks, standard decoration and standard production slots; custom blanks or premium positioning pushes the per-piece price above the range.
For seasonal campaign launches we typically run a 200-unit pilot 4–6 weeks before the campaign window to confirm Pantone match, material feel and the in-store hand-out workflow before scaling to the full campaign volume. The pilot accepts the chain's marketing team for sample review.
For loyalty programme merch at 100–1,000 unit runs, the realistic lead time is three to four weeks from artwork confirmation; for store-staff uniform programmes with embroidery, four to six weeks including the uniform sizing run; for seasonal campaign merch at 5,000–50,000 unit runs, six to ten weeks including silkscreen or DTF production; for e-commerce unboxing kits, three to four weeks.
For retail chains with central warehouses in Belgrade, freight is local courier or pallet delivery to the named warehouse. For regional chains with multiple distribution centres, freight runs through the contracted Belgrade courier and the Pošta Srbije parcel service. We coordinate the on-site handover with the chain's central procurement team and label every carton with the named distribution centre and the receiving point.
Currency and payment are quoted in RSD by default with EUR conversion on the invoice at the NBS middle rate on the day of issue. The standard retail 30/70 milestone structure applies; for seasonal campaign runs with the central procurement office the structure is sometimes 50/50 with net-30 settlement.
Most Serbian retail clients engage us through their marketing team, their loyalty-programme manager, or their procurement office. The merch programme usually sits with the marketing lead for seasonal campaigns and store events, with the loyalty-programme manager for redemption supply, and with the procurement office for store-staff uniforms.
We run the project from our Belgrade office with weekly status calls and a shared folder for artwork, proofs, qualification documents and shipping records. The on-site contact at the warehouse is usually the chain's procurement officer or the loyalty-programme manager. The merch handover is signed by a named consignee against a packing list.
We do not promise preferred-supplier status, exclusivity or marketing partnership in retail. What we promise is the merch programme delivered on specification, with the qualification documents attached, billed to the chain's PO line and reconciled against the PDV treatment the chain's procurement office has named.
Yes — the loyalty-programme redemption sub-ledger requires purchase order, warehouse receipt, redemption fulfilment and reconciliation notes. We attach this packet to the chain's annual audit cycle and refresh it on every supplier change.
Six to ten weeks including silkscreen or DTF production, with capacity reserved at our Belgrade and Novi Sad partners for the back-to-school (August), Black Friday (November), and pre-Christmas (December) campaign windows. We run a 200-unit pilot 4–6 weeks before the campaign window.
