Six types of ORIGIN X conference merch, produced together from revisions to sample approval

Easy through every change: ORIGIN X conference merch production

When you prepare a conference, merch items and quantities often change more than once. ORIGIN X also adjusted their lineup, dropping the coach jacket after it had been made as a sample and adding white to the T-shirts they had been considering in black. O-SEAN kept close track of progress as the requests changed, and produced six types of merch with them, split into apparel for sale and event giveaways.

Because the minimum order quantity (MOQ) for caps was a burden, we suggested printing and embroidering ready-made caps instead of custom-making them, which kept the project within budget. The result was 20 embroidered caps for event giveaways. The 30 white T-shirts and 20 double-knit hoodies for sale each came with a main label and a care label and were individually packed in OPP bags. Labels and individual packaging were all part of the retail set.

100 acrylic keyrings, 100 pin badges and 200 tarpaulin bags with 2-color screen printing were made as event giveaways along with the caps. For the tarpaulin bags in particular, we ran one more sample so the manager could check the quality with their own eyes. This order also received a 10% discount promotion from our newsletter subscription event.

Beyond production, O-SEAN guided the schedule from contract to payment to help the manager prepare. The manager told us, “Even with so many changes during production, they made it easy for us to keep going.” Their thank-you note ended with a friendly promise to grab a drink together near Seolleung Station next time.
