Custom souvenir cups for attraction gift shops and concession stands,
in your design

It depends on the cup, its size, how the logo goes on and in how many colours, the lid and straw, the packing, how many you order of each design, and the freight and customs entry. We do not publish a cup price. The quote puts each of those on its own line, and the landed cost calculator on this site adds them up.

Concession suppliers sell stock souvenir cups by the case, often with a logo printed on, which suits a stand that needs cups soon. A cup in your own design, colours and packing is made to order, which suits a venue that plans its season months ahead. We run that second route, with factories in China.

A souvenir cup is a reusable cup sold with a drink, or on its own, that the visitor takes home. A stadium cup is the tall plastic shape most of them take, often with a ridged base, a lid and a straw. Colour-changing, aluminium and bulb-shaped cups are souvenir cups too.

That is your scheme, not the cup's. Many venues sell the cup with a drink and refill it at a lower price for the day or the season. The cup only has to carry the scheme: the season's mark in the artwork, a design that changes each year if you want one, and room for whatever your stand checks. A beverage partner's logo goes on only with their written approval.

Not every one. Stadium-style, colour-changing and single-wall aluminium cups are made for cold drinks. A cup for hot cocoa is its own specification, usually a double-wall cup with a lid, or a mug. Put "hot" on the spec sheet and the factory proposes a cup made for it. Try the sample with the drink you serve before you sign it off.

The same as for any cup, plus one question more. The factory names the plastic of the cup, the lid and the straw, names the colour-change ink, and shows its food-contact test report for that exact cup and decoration before you commit. If it cannot, we do not go ahead. The print also stays clear of the rim.

That depends on the cup and how the logo goes on, so we treat it as a question for the sample and do not promise it. A printed logo sits on the surface, and an in-mould label sits inside the plastic, so they wear differently. Tell us how the cups will be washed, at the stand and at home, and the quote says whether decorated samples are made and washed that way before the run.

As general information: US rules ask for an imported article to be marked with its country of origin, and for a cup that means on the cup itself. The spec sheet puts "Made in China" on the base, moulded in or printed where it lasts. The rest is up to you: your name, the season, and whatever your refill scheme needs. Every logo on the artwork needs its owner's written authorisation. Your broker or counsel can confirm what your goods need.

If you want them. Lids, straws and caps go on the spec sheet with their type and colour, and the factory names what each one is made of, as it does for the cup. Tell us whether they should be packed on the cup or beside it.

Yes. For the shop, each cup can be bagged, boxed or carded, with your barcode or SKU label printed from your own system and the lid packed on or beside it. For the stand, the cups come nested in sleeves by the carton. Both go on the spec sheet.

No. What makes it a souvenir is the bulb shape and the silver cap, and the bulb cups we quote are unlit. A cup that lights up needs batteries, which bring rules of their own, so we do not offer one.

Ask for the quote in spring and sign off the artwork over the summer, so the cups can ship with the season's containers. Tell us the day they have to be at your stand or on your shelf, and we work back to the date the order has to be placed.

Yes. Cups can share a shipment with your beanies, blankets or other goods, or with a light attraction's season of lights. Each design gets its own carton marks and packing list, so your stockroom can check them in.
