Here in Australia we mainly recognise A&W for their canned root beers available in limited supply across the country. However, in the US the company is known as a fast-food chain as well and their restaurants serve a lot of different burgers, hot dogs, sweets, and drinks. Like a lot of big restaurant chains, A&W has started embracing nostalgia in the form of promotional merchandise with all sorts of retro-inspired A&W-branded products now available in their online store.

Promotional Swag for Diners

A&W might not be that well known over here, but in the US stopping for a meal at an A&W restaurant has been a common occurrence for almost 100 years. Not only does the chain offer an assortment of standard American meals and treats (not to mention their famous root beer floats), but their logo and brand colours have a retro look to them that makes them perfectly suited to a range of nostalgic merchandise.

But what sets A&W apart from merchandise superstars like McDonalds? Their focus is on some very traditional merchandise, the type you might expect to see if you stopped at a roadside diner 40 years ago. The results, we think, are pretty fun!

Old School Custom Decorated Products

What struck us immediately about the range of branded products being sold by A&W is that while there are some more recent products (such as the branded face masks), many could have walked out of a diner from yesteryear including;

• Contrast Caps With Logo Branding
• Logo Decorated Beer Mugs
• Customised Bulk Mason Jars
• Logo Imprinted Bum Bags
• Unique Custom Shape Lapel Pins
• Promotional T-Shirts
• Customised Winter Hoodies
• Bulk Custom Sports Balls
• and more!

The use of orange and brown, the traditional A&W brand colours on all these products really helps sell a consistent image and makes purchasers keen to own "whole sets" of stylish merchandise. While Australians don't commonly indulge in A&W drinks or food, there's a lot of inspiration to be found in these branded products.

Orange and brown promotional products often represent more than just an immediate advertisement for a business. Most commonly, these colors are indicative of classic values such as dependability, integrity, reliability and trustworthiness. Orange symbolizes joy and confidence while brown stands for consistency.

When combined together in promotional products like pens, bags or mugs, they can create a message that customers will recognize your company as dependable and reliable experts with their best interests at heart. Visitors may be pleasantly surprised to receive a reminder that you're looking out for them while they take it home or use it every day!
