BRING THE JOY WITH JOYCOAST'S ECO-FRIENDLY GIFTING EXPERIENCES

Getting started is easy. Contact our team at sales@joycoast.com or call/text us at (872) 259-7259 to tell us about your event. Share your date, location, attendee count, and budget, and we will put together a custom proposal with curated product recommendations, branding mockups, and a full quote. We typically respond within 24 hours.

The minimum for an on-site gifting experience is 50 gifts purchased. Even if your group is smaller than that, we can still make it happen and you will have extra gifts on hand. From there, we scale up comfortably to 1,000+ guests, including large-scale and multi-day events. Our sweet spot is about 100 guests per team member, and we add staff as your group grows to keep the experience smooth and personal for everyone.

Pricing is based on a per-person rate determined by the product tier you choose for your event. In addition to the cost per gift, we bill separately for travel, logistics, and staffing (very reasonably). In most cases, we also ask for hotel lodging for our on-site team. Certain destinations we have local reps available and accommodations may not be needed. Contact us for a custom quote tailored to your event.

We offer three sunglasses tiers: OG package at $99 per person, Mid-Tier at $125 per person, and Premium at $153 per person. All tiers include polarized UV400 lenses, spring hinges, and a branded cork folding case with your logo. The tiers differ by frame construction, materials, and the number of styles available. The Premium tier features fully wooden and abalone seashell frames with up to 18 styles to choose from.

Absolutely. Choice-based experiences are one of our most popular setups. You set a per-person budget, and guests choose between sunglasses, watches, wallets, Apple Watch bands, or rings. This drives much higher satisfaction because everyone picks something they actually want and will use. We manage the inventory mix to make sure it balances out within your budget.

We can bring a curated selection or the full range. Our core product categories include wooden sunglasses, wooden watches, wooden rings, Apple Watch bands, wooden wallets, and bamboo wireless power banks. We can also bring eco-friendly accessories like bamboo beanies, vegan leather duffel bags, tumblers, tote bags, and sustainable beach towels. You can focus on one product category or mix and match to create a full shopping experience.

Our team sets up a branded gifting station at your event with product displays, mirrors, and signage. Attendees browse the collection, try things on, and choose the gift they love right on the spot. For most domestic events, we bring all the products on-site and guests walk away with their gift in hand. Our staff is there to help with fittings, answer questions, and resize watches on the spot. Most guests spend about 3 to 4 minutes at the station, and we can scale our team and setup to handle your number of attendees within your exact desired time frame. We always bring extra inventory to make sure every attendee gets their favorite style.

Yes, and all customization is done in-house by our team in Chicago. We typically brand the cork folding case for sunglasses, which your guests will see and use every day. We can also add your logo to bamboo watch boxes, lens cloths, and packaging inserts. For orders of 100+ of a single sunglass style, we can add a logo to the temple (side) of the frames. Laser engraving can be turned around in days. Screen printing and larger branding projects typically take 2 to 6 weeks, though we are pushing toward 2-week turnaround as more production moves fully in-house.

Four to six weeks is ideal for fully branded programs. For quick-turn events, we can work with as little as two weeks by focusing on laser engraving and smaller branding elements. If you are in a time crunch, contact us and we will find a way to make it work.

Yes. We travel worldwide and have partners all over the globe. We have done events in Mexico, the Caribbean, and many other destinations, and we are set up to bring our gifting experience just about anywhere. For international events, we offer several flexible options. We can bring the full product assortment on-site so attendees choose in person and receive their gift on the spot. We can also set up a pre-trip mailer through our branded landing page, where attendees select their gift in advance and we ship directly to their homes or to the event planner to bring the pre-selected items. Another popular option is an on-site try-on with a post-event mailer, where attendees choose at the event and we ship from Chicago afterward. We can also kit any of our shipments with a custom message, additional items, or event branding. We are very flexible and will work with you to find the best approach for your event and destination.

We offer a virtual gifting platform with a branded landing page where recipients choose their gift and we ship directly to their homes. We also have our Joycard program, a premium wooden gift card with a QR code that recipients use to redeem their gift online. Three tiers are available: Explorer ($99), Adventure ($153), and Trailblazer ($199). All virtual options include free shipping and 10 trees planted per gift. For groups of 50 or more, we include a complimentary custom-branded landing page.

Sunglasses include: the sunglasses, a branded cork folding case, a lens cleaning cloth, and 10 trees planted. 

Watches include: the watch, a bamboo gift box, a resizing tool with instructions, and 10 trees planted. 

Gift sets plant 10 trees per item, so a two-item set plants 20 trees per attendee.

We are a small, family-owned Chicago business, and you work directly with our founder and a dedicated team that genuinely cares about making your event great. We are not a reseller or a middleman. We are the manufacturer and the brand directly, which means we control the quality, the customization, and the timeline. Our headquarters and gifting lounge are located in Lincoln Park, Chicago, and if you are in the city, you are welcome to host your event right at our store.

Sustainability is built into everything we do. Our products are handcrafted from FSC-certified wood, and with 10 trees planted for every single gift, adding a meaningful sustainability story to your event is effortless. Your next event can easily plant hundreds or thousands of trees in communities that need it most.

Then there is the wow factor. Most attendees have never seen premium, modern accessories made from wood before. Our sunglasses and watches are up to 50% lighter than traditional options, and guests consistently tell us they are the most comfortable accessories they have ever worn. People are genuinely surprised that wood can look this good and feel this light, and that reaction is what makes the experience so memorable.

We can also turn events around quickly and handle your program in a very short time frame. If you need it done fast, contact us and we will make it happen.

Over 160,000 trees and counting. Our goal is to plant 1 million trees in the next two years. We partner with Trees for the Future and Eden Reforestation Projects to grow forest gardens in Africa that provide food, create jobs, restore land, and lift entire communities. When you choose Joycoast, you are helping grow food, create jobs, and change lives through the power of trees.
