Active Branding option ~ order class/group set(s) of 4 games into which we incorporate your own branding/logo so that your organisation becomes an active part of game play.
We liaise with you to agree the best way to feature your organisation as part of the game.
Is it as a Customer? As a Distribution Centre (DC)? As a Railhead?
As a multimodal freight operator? Or something different? See examples illustrated below.
Once we agree, you send us your hi-resolution logo that we incorporate into cards or the game board itself for your games. Your business or organisation then becomes an active part of every game you purchase.
We also provide an adhesive label with your logo to go on the box lids, celebrating your support for learning.
Branded games are ideal for:
1. Become a ‘Customer’ on the game board:
2. Be a 'Distribution Centre' like 'Prologis':
3. Be a logistics provider competing for orders with your own branded Company base like 'Pallex':
If there is nothing here that reflects the role of your organisation in supply chains, why not challenge us to create a new influence on game play that captures the essence of your organisation?
