The Hospitality Guide: 6 Real-World Client Collabs

Work+Shelter · Editorial Team

Branded merchandise isn’t just about adding logos to everything it’s about telling your story with every stitch, print, and material choice. We help restaurants, cafes, markets, and food brands bring their values to life through high-quality, custom products that make a lasting impression. Here’s a look at six of our favorite collaborations in the hospitality world:

RIGOR HILL

Rigor Hill Market branded merchandise set: tote bags, apron, and drawstring pouches in cream and rust colors.

Located in the Tribeca neighborhood in NYC, Rigor Hill Market commissioned a line of custom merch for their storefront.

We developed canvas double handle bags in both natural and rust, a downtown bag in natural, and aprons in rust, featuring highly tactile embroidery that highlights their natural, community-focused mission.

OKO

Double Handle Bag and Tea towels developed for OKO

Artisanal food brand, OKO, co-founded by a high-profile fashion designer and a renowned chef, required branded merchandise for their official launch.

To meet their deadline, we provided rush printing services for their custom artwork on a suite of organic tea towels and double handle bags with sustainable paper packaging.

LEI

Custom-made wine tote for Lei

James Beard Best New Restaurant 2026 award winner, Lei a contemporary wine bar in New York’s Chinatown commissioned a custom solution for their wine program.

We developed a specialized four-bottle wine tote, designed to offer their guests a secure and stylish way to transport curated selections.

RESY

Café Chore Jacket and Apron with red embroidery detail made for Resy

Resy, a premium restaurant reservation service, commissioned apparel for an event in Chicago for their onsite hospitality team.

We produced embroidered café chore coats and matching aprons, providing a cohesive, professional uniform for their staff to wear during this and other exclusive dining events.

TARTINERY

Standard Tote and Café Chore Jacket made for Tartinery

Landmark French café-bar with six locations in Manhattan, Tartinery, sought a dual-purpose branding solution to elevate their guest experience.

We provided café chore coats for their service team to ensure a polished aesthetic, alongside standard tote bags for their retail corner, allowing patrons to carry a piece of the café’s charm with them.

LULA CAFÉ

Wine tote and Book Bag for Lula Café
