Often, this is a side-effect of tax code weirdness.
In my legislative framework, branded stuff is considered "advertisement", which can be given out with any amount of value to employees. Non-branded stuff - or money - would be taxable income. With a tax rate of up to 48%, that's a difference, and paperwork for the employee.
So I have a very nice thermos with my employer's logo on it, and I am quite happy about it.

- bombcar 4y agoThe key to finding good branded stuff is to find the stuff first, then figure how to brand it.
