By partnering with our OEM Factory, campus retailers can launch a proprietary line of drinkware that reacts to heat or cold. From the packaging to the bottom stamp, it’s 100% your university’s brand. We provide the manufacturing technology; you get the retail glory.
Private Label Magic Mugs are a Bookstore Bestseller
Exclusive Brand Ownership:
With private labeling, you aren’t selling a generic vendor’s product. You are selling your school’s official gear. We can print the university seal on the bottom of the mug and design custom retail boxes with your barcode (UPC) and holograms.
High Retail Margins:
Sourcing factory direct allows you to minimize the Cost of Goods Sold (COGS). Because magic mugs have a high perceived value (the “cool factor”), you can retail them at a premium price point (18−18−25), significantly boosting your store’s profit per square foot.
Viral Campus Appeal:
Whether it’s a “Mood Cup” changing color at a tailgate or a coffee mug revealing the campus skyline, these items are social media magnets. Students post them, alumni gift them, and they become a staple of campus life.
Factory Services: From Licensing to Logistics
We understand the strict requirements of collegiate licensing and retail supply chains.
1. Rapid Prototyping (Pre-Production Samples):

We manufacture shelf-ready packaging.
Window Boxes: Show off the mug design.
Hang Tags: For plastic stadium cups.
Barcoding: We apply your SKUs and price stickers at the factory, saving your staff labor time.
