About & Impact
What you stand for
and how you show up
matters.
Vector Shoppe started in 2018 with a simple belief: business can be a force for more than business.
The idea actually began years earlier, during a university project that challenged us to connect a business idea with a way of giving back. It stuck.
As individuals, making a meaningful impact on the causes we care about can sometimes feel difficult. But businesses have an opportunity to multiply that impact — bringing customers, purchases and purpose together to contribute to something bigger.
For Vector Shoppe, that something has always been the environment.
It started with print.
Vector Shoppe began as a printing company. With paper at the heart of the business, trees were an obvious place to start.
So we created Print More, Plant More — a commitment to plant trees as orders came through our Shoppe.
The idea was simple: if our business depended on resources from the natural world, we wanted part of our business to give something back.
A lot has changed since 2018. Including us.
From printing to
branded merchandise.
Over the years, we’ve gained hands-on experience in the promotional merchandise industry, built relationships across an extensive supplier network and learned just how much is possible beyond traditional print.
We’ve also seen the industry evolve.
Recycled materials, responsible sourcing, give-back programs and products designed with their environmental and social impact in mind are becoming increasingly available.
At the same time, we’re realistic: not every product has an environmental or social impact story.
We don’t think pretending otherwise helps anyone.
That’s why the next chapter of Vector Shoppe is built around giving you choices, being transparent about them, and making it easier to understand when an option offers something more.
Shoppe With Purpose.
Some products go a little further.
Our Shoppe With Purpose mark identifies products with environmental, social or give-back attributes, helping you recognize those options when we’re curating merchandise for your project.
That could mean recycled or responsibly sourced materials, a brand that supports a cause, a product connected to a give-back program, or another meaningful impact beyond the product itself.
And when the conventional option is the right option for your project? That’s okay too.
10 trees. Every order.
Whether you choose a Shoppe With Purpose product or a conventional one, Vector Shoppe plants 10 trees with every order.
No special product required. No sustainability box you need to check.
It’s our commitment, not yours.
Because while we can’t promise that every product will have an environmental story, we can decide what kind of business we want to be.
Better merch starts
with better choices.
Today, Vector Shoppe is more than the printing company it started as.
We source branded merchandise across apparel, drinkware, bags, technology, stationery, gifting, print and more — without asking you to dig through thousands of products to find what you’re looking for.
Tell us about your project. We’ll learn about your audience, budget, timeline and goals, then curate options that make sense for you.
Some will simply be great products.
Some will Shoppe With Purpose.
Every order will plant 10 trees.
And through it all, the idea that started Vector Shoppe remains the same:
What you stand for and how you show up matters.
