The Ultimate Packing List for Business Travel

How to Pack for a Business Trip

After two years of shutdowns and travel restrictions, workers are once again taking to the skies for conventions, tradeshows, and meetings. In other words, business travel is officially back. Many airlines are reporting the highest level of business travel since the pandemic started, with one even saying its business demand was back to 80% of 2019 levels. Now is a great time for your company to stock up on custom accessories to get your employees ready to travel again. A business travel checklist is essential for any work trip, and Merchology has the high-quality logo-branded products your team needs to make travel a breeze.

Why Your Company Needs Custom Travel Accessories

Logo-branded travel accessories make work trips more convenient for your employees, but they also serve a promotional purpose. Business trips are some of the best ways to connect with colleagues, partnering businesses, and potential clients. The more people see your logo during the event, the more likely it is that they’ll remember your company after the trip is over.

 

Laptops and Tablets Bags

Work devices are some of the most important items to pack on any business trip. Laptops and tablets let us stay connected to the office, answer emails, and complete work tasks, especially during flights and layovers.

While your employees likely already have laptops or tablets to bring with them, they still need high-quality laptop and tablet bags to transport them safely. Merchology offers a wide variety of durable backpacks and messenger bags that include cushioned compartments to protect valuable technology. Your employees will be proud to carry these attractive bags from top brands like Kenneth Cole, Samsonite, and more 

Proper Clothing for Business Travel

It’s the most complicated part of the packing checklist for any business trip: figuring what variety of clothes you should bring for travel, meetings, and fun. Clothing makes up the bulk of travel packing, and it requires the most consideration. Your employees need comfortable options that will also reflect positively on your business. Thankfully, Merchology has you covered with a wide variety of customizable shirts:

• Our custom Dress Shirts for Men offer traditional business style for meetings.
• We also have a large collection of Women’s Dress Shirts. Many of our men’s and women’s options feature non-iron and wrinkle-resistant fabric, making them perfect for travel.
• Your employees will also need comfortable logo-branded Athleisure shirts for long flights, outdoor events, casual meetings, and long days on the tradeshow floor.

Logo-branded Umbrellas

A good umbrella is one of the most important items for a business travel checklist–and also one of the most easily overlooked. Keep your employees weather-prepared with one of our logo-branded umbrellas from Merchology. We have large, sturdy options for wide coverage, as well as small travel umbrellas for portability and convenience.

Corporate Notebooks, Pens, and Portfolios

While we all love the convenience of digital devices, some situations still call for taking notes by hand. Merchology has everything your employees need to keep their information organized at every meeting and conference presentation:

• Our Custom Notebooks are offered in a wide variety of sizes, cover types, and page layouts.
• Corporate Logo Pens are a necessity for any businesses and are especially useful for travelers. Merchology has everything from luxury pens (which make thoughtful gifts for employees) to more standard promotional pens (perfect for employees to give out when leading meetings and work sessions).
• Logo-embossed Padfolios take organization a step further–they include both a notepad and storage for papers, pens, and cards. Your employees will use a durable padfolio for travel and the office for years to come.

 

Branded Business Card Holders

Whenever you’re planning corporate travel, you always want to maximize the contacts your employees will make on their trip. That’s why it’s important to provide your team with durable Corporate Card Holders. Merchology has options in various materials and capacities to make it easy to always have business cards on hand.
