    Our Story

    Merchology was founded by Richard (Dick) Ward, Andrew Ward, and Ally (Ward) Delgado, and opened its doors in early 2014. After 28 years in the corporate apparel industry, Dick’s vision was to launch an e-commerce business model that made the gear ordering process faster, cheaper, and more transparent for businesses.

    Merchology is redefining quality and ease of ordering in the corporate apparel and gifts space. Over our last 9 years in business, we have provided co-branded merchandise to more than 65,000 companies worldwide, including 93% of the current Fortune 500.

    Dick, Ally, and Andrew Ward are the co-founders and executive team of Merchology

     

    Merchology Core Values

    • Be Humble and Hungry – We believe that the difference between success and failure isn’t talent; it’s hunger. There is always room for improvement, and we strive each day to be better than the day before. We are focused on our goals, but we remain grounded and committed to the work it takes to achieve them.
    • Honor Commitments – We assume responsibility for our decisions, actions, and the quality of our products and services. We do what we say we will – for each other internally, for our customers, and for our direct brand partners. We vow to be reliable, trustworthy, and to act with integrity and respect.
    • Embrace Change – We are comfortable being uncomfortable. We pay attention to the new and evolving needs of our customers, and we constantly seek to create new and better ways to serve them. We believe that bold new ideas are what drive our company and industry forward.
    • Protect the Planet - We seek to manage our business in a way that protects the environment and preserves the earth’s natural resources. There is always a “cleaner and greener” way to do things, and we choose that route whenever possible across sourcing, manufacturing, packaging, and delivery.
    • Win as a Team - Successful teamwork requires listening, sharing resources and ideas, and keeping an open mind. When someone is stuck, we rally to get them unstuck. When something awesome happens, we all get in on the celebration. We are interdependent and inclusive, and we can only WIN when we do it together!

    Our Team

    You may have guessed it by reading the names of our founders... Merchology is a family owned and operated business! When we launched Merchology back in 2014, there were only 11 of us. Now we have a team of over 250+ employees between our Plymouth, Minnesota headquarters, and our Harrisburg, Pennsylvania facility! We believe that good people make good companies and we aim to grow strong every year to help serve you best.

     

    The Merchology team loves to celebrate together and enjoy each other's company

    Putting People First

    At Merchology, we are committed to putting people first. It is our goal to make each customer feel understood and appreciated, which is why we offer all-inclusive pricing, fast turnaround times, and a dedicated customer service representative for the duration of your order. Plus, you get a free MerchPerks gift of your choice that ships with your purchase. It’s our job to make you look good and to make your life easier!

    Prioritizing people goes well beyond our customers—we also take pride in staying active within our community! Our team regularly plans charitable events to benefit the environment and those in need. Some of our largest giveback initiatives include volunteer events with Feed My Starving Children, The Mississippi Park Connection, M Health Fairview Masonic Children's Hospital, Interfaith Outreach Community Partners (IOCP), Toys for Tots, and Caitlin’s Smiles.

    The Merchology team was hard at work volunteering in our community by planting trees in the Mississippi Parks Connection

    Merchology is a Disability-Owned Business!

    Merchology is incredibly proud to announce that it has officially been certified as a disability-owned business enterprise through Disability:IN’s Supplier Diversity Program. Having been approved by the National Certification Committee, Merchology is a DOBE-certified supplier in the United States. We're proud to join over 400 corporations in this honor and hope to continue expanding opportunities for people with disabilities across industries.

    Sustainable Business Practices

    We believe that business need to take the lead on sustainability to really make a difference. That's why we have ramped up our sustainability efforts more than ever. Since 2017 Merchology has donated 1% of all sustainable brand revenue to environmental causes through our membership to the 1% for the Planet program. We have also switched over to a more sustainable shipping process by partnering with EcoEnclose and International Paper for 100% recycled shipping boxes and poly mailer bags. 

    We are proud to offer a wide range of eco-friendly products and sustainable corporate gifts as well, including apparel and gifts from Patagonia, S'well, and econscious. However, we still saw gaps within the corporate apparel space as it relates to sustainability, so we decided to launch our very own sustainable clothing brand...

    Zusa is Born

    We wanted a better way to co-brand, so we made it ourselves. More specifically, our goal was to create a clothing brand that's sustainably made, ethically sourced, built for comfort, and designed with blank space in all the right spots for your company logo.

     

     

    In October 2019 the Zusa brand was introduced to the world. Our sustainability principles were interwoven in the brand, as 93% of the Zusa line of apparel is currently made from recycled materials and 100% of Zusa products are made in facilities that set the standard in environmentally conscious production practices!
