Start with the purpose, not a long product list
A clearer merchandise brief begins with the people using the product and the job it needs to do.

A new shop, a brand event and an employee welcome pack can all use custom products, but they do not need the same collection. Before choosing items, decide what you want people to do with them.
For a retail range, the item needs to make sense beside what customers already buy. For an event, consider how guests will carry and use it during the day. For an employee gift, think about the routine it will become part of. These decisions help narrow the options more than a large catalogue does.
Give the supplier a short brief: who the product is for, where it will be used, approximate quantity, target budget and required arrival date. A reference image can help explain style, but should not be treated as proof of materials or performance.
Once the direction is clear, review the details that matter: how the logo will look, whether packaging is needed, what a sample should confirm and what product-specific testing may apply. Keep a written record of the agreed specification.
Dellty can discuss your brief and help scope suitable custom product and sourcing options. Start with your intended use; the product list can follow.
