At trade fairs, the first impression decides everything – a team in matching clothes shows visitors from a distance who to talk to. macherkleidung.de delivers your trade fair outfits with chest and back logo in 5 working days as standard after print approval.
For Trade fair we recommend Polo shirts (Tee Jays TJ1405 Men's Luxury Stretch Polo), Softshell jackets (Regatta Professional RG628 Ablaze Printable Softshell Jacket), T-shirts (Fruit of the Loom F130 Iconic T), Caps (Atlantis AT502 Start Five Cap). At around 40 items the estimate is €1,018.00 excl. VAT including printing – delivery in 5 working days, express in 24 or 48 hours.
Why matching clothing works at a trade fair stand
At trade shows, competitors are often only a few metres away – a team wearing the same colour and the same logo stands out clearly. Visitors spot your contacts while walking through the hall, without having to look for eye contact first. That shortens the time to the first conversation and gives your stand a clear look. Especially during setup, when no stand signage is up yet, a matching team helps with orientation.
Choosing clothing by type of fair and task
B2B trade shows with lots of consultations at the table call for a polo shirt or a softshell jacket with an embroidered logo. Consumer fairs with heavy foot traffic and lively demos suit a T-shirt better. At outdoor fairs or autumn dates, a softshell jacket that easily goes over the polo shirt keeps you protected. Include your setup crew in the calculation too – the cheaper T-shirt is enough for the setup day, the polo shirt for the fair days themselves.
Back print: visible when you turn away
At a trade fair stand you are constantly turning around: to the brochure rack, to the screen, to a colleague. The back print keeps your company name visible even when you are not facing the visitor. macherkleidung.de prints tops as standard with a logo on the chest and a full back design at no extra charge. The chest logo can also be embroidered on request – for the polo shirt, embroidery is recommended because of its high-quality look in customer conversations.
Calculating realistic quantities for the fair
Count not only the days on the stand, but also the setup and teardown days and any drivers or helpers. For a three-day fair with 6 people on the stand, 2 polo shirts each plus one softshell jacket is a realistic approach – that already comes to more than 25 pieces and moves you into the next price tier. If you also plan spares for stains or changes, you quickly end up at 40 or more pieces. Sizes do not have to be settled when you send your enquiry.
A cap with your logo makes your staff instantly recognisable in the bustle of the hall, without name badges.

Timeline
Plan backwards from the first day of the fair: standard shipping takes 5 working days after print approval. So allow for an approved design at least one working week before the fair starts. If you want to be on the safe side, give yourself two weeks. When time is really tight, Express 48 h (+25 %) or Express 24 h (+50 %) is available – here too, production only starts after your written approval.

Frequently asked questions
Can we mix different garments in one order?
Yes. You can combine polo shirts, T-shirts and jackets in one enquiry. The price tier applies to the total number of pieces across all items – so mixed orders automatically benefit from better prices.
How long before the fair do we need to order?
You need an approved print design at least one working week before the fair starts, then standard (5 working days) is enough. Two weeks gives you more buffer. If time is short, Express 48 h or 24 h is available for a surcharge.
We don't know yet which sizes we need – is that a problem?
No. Sizes do not have to be settled when you send your enquiry. You pass on the size mix once you have collected it internally – before production starts.
Are there setup costs for printing or embroidery?
No. macherkleidung.de has no setup costs. The guide price is net, including printing or embroidery, and becomes binding after we check the logo, stock and deadline.
