At TCB, providing the best possible products and service, in line with each of our clients’ individual brand identities, is top of mind for us. One of the many industries we work with is higher education.

In the collegiate world, a school’s identity is directly tied to the entirety of the community associated with it. That includes the students themselves, staff, administration, families, alumni, the surrounding neighborhood, and the list goes on!

It’s more than corporate colors. It’s an atmosphere that varies from school to school. When it comes to promotional products, every single item, from design to function, must be seamlessly aligned.

Because we fundamentally understand this, we are licensed by the Collegiate Licensing Company (CLC). This means we only work with the best of the best when it comes to our suppliers.

The CLC provides connections to over 200 colleges and universities nationwide with industry experts that fit the goals and philosophies of each university, while increasing the value of college brands.

As a CLC-licensed business, we boast:

• A commitment and ability to invest in the collegiate segment of the market
• Proven production and distribution capabilities
• Dedicated staff to manage the day-to-day licensing process and supply chain compliance
• A new or unique product or an incremental means of distribution

• Established track record as a successful business
• Existing relationships with collegiate-licensed product retailers
• Internal infrastructure and systems to manage approval and royalty reporting processes.
• Commitment to responsible sourcing and production of products throughout the supply chain
