Freshers' Week is the single most important time of year for engaging new students, boosting society sign-ups, and building lasting memories. At Banana Moon, we understand the pressure to deliver high-quality, memorable merchandise on a tight deadline.
That's why we've positioned ourselves as the trusted, reliable one-stop shop for Student Unions, sports clubs, and societies across the UK. We combine decades of expertise in customisation techniques, from cutting-edge DTG and DTF printing to premium embroidery, to ensure your Freshers’ merchandise stands out.
Forget juggling multiple suppliers. We specialise in handling the bulk orders that make freshers' fairs a success. Whether you need thousands of custom T-shirts for a welcome event, hundreds of embroidered hoodies for a club kit, or eco-friendly tote bags to fill with essential info, our process is streamlined for speed and quality. We offer fast, guaranteed turnaround times that give you peace of mind, ensuring every item is ready before the first student steps onto campus.
"We’re not just in the business of printing logos - customers choose us cause they can feel the difference in our family values, sustainable approach and high quality. Our team genuinely cares about people and the planet, and we’re proud to bring that ethos to every order."
Alex Grace, Founder of Banana Moon
Our commitment extends beyond just fast printing. We believe in building lasting relationships based on quality and responsible practice. Learn more about our mission and values on our About Us page.
We are also proud to offer an extensive range of ethical and sustainable options, perfect for SUs committed to a greener campus. Explore our full selection of organic cotton and recycled material items in the Eco-Products Collection.
Due to the high volume of orders during the summer months, our production schedule fills up quickly. To ensure delivery for the start of Freshers' Week (typically mid-September), we strongly recommend placing your final order by the end of July. For exact lead times and to secure your slot, please contact us immediately.
At Banana Moon, we specialise in multi-item solutions. Our team can coordinate a complete welcome pack, combining different products like custom t-shirts, embroidered tote bags, and printed caps, all delivered as one bulk order. This makes distribution simpler for your team and ensures brand consistency across all your merchandise.
Our three most popular items for high-volume, cost-effective Freshers' Fairs are:
Hoodies: Cosy pieces that students will love wearing to those early morning lectures.
Our in-house design team is here to help. Whether you have a high-resolution artwork file or just a basic logo and an idea, we can refine, adapt, and prepare your visuals for optimal printing or embroidery across any item. Just send us what you have, and we’ll take it from there.
We are pleased to offer tiered pricing structures that reward large-volume orders. As a dedicated partner to Student Unions, we provide competitive bulk discounts for orders that exceed certain thresholds. Please request a quote with your required items and quantities for the best possible rate.
