Getting very annoyed by your company trying to sell me stuff. I have unsubscribed more than once and you continue to send me junk mail. Trying to send me merch deals I simply dont want. If I ever do decide to get merch made, because of the way you've spammed me. It wont be from yourselves I'm afraid!

We have been using M&M for our marketing and internal use merchandise for years. This was my first-time ordering products from them. The service couldn't have been better. The recommendations that I got from the very first email until the day I received my order were fabulous. The products were great, and the lead time was perfect.
101% recommended!!

Thank You,
Archit.

We have used M&M for several branded merchandise products and can highly recommend. More recently we ordered some branded hoodies. The ordering process was straightforward and efficient from start to finish, and we received the product very quickly. The hoodies are also great quality! The team have loved their new hoodies and are wearing them in the office.

We've worked with Chani for years and we're always amazed at the quick turnaround with quotes and product delivery, the quality of the items she sources, and the endless patience she and her team have when we're slow at making decisions.The ordering process is easy, and her comprehensive knowledge of the products allows her to offer thoughtful advice on the details in the artwork. I love the fact that Chani and M&M are champions for women in business too!

Most recently Chani sourced these gorgeous notebooks we give to new joiners and some clients. We're really pleased with them!

Ordered some new merchandise for the company I work for (Student Digs) and M&M have been amazing from start to finish, Quick lead times and visuals of our logo on the products before placing the order. Any questions they were happy to help. We will definitely use again. Thank you.

Even when planning an outdoors event in summer, you always need a back up plan in case the great British weather decides not to play ball!

Thankfully, the weather held up and we had glorious sunshine for our GFirst LEP Annual Review event at Cotswold Airport, which meant (almost sadly!) we didn’t get to use the new umbrellas Chani created for us.

We are so impressed with the quality and design, they are exactly what we were looking for. Our board members and team will love using them and they will come in so handy for future events.

I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Chani, she is a pleasure to work with and always very quick to answer any queries. Looking forward to working with M&M again soon!

Thank you so much!

Absolutely stellar customer service. When we had a problem with some of our promotional material (through no fault of Chani's), it was fixed instantly with no cost and with a smile! Always friendly, professional and willing to go the extra mile.
