Licensing Programme

Our licensing programme has been running since 2008 and we have become the market leader for a number of ranges in this time such as Christmas-based merchandise, BBQ and kitchen ranges and metal signs and accessories. We currently hold licensing agreements with high profile sports clubs such as Liverpool, Arsenal, Chelsea, Manchester City, Tottenham Hotspur and West Ham amongst others.


As part of these licensing agreements, we supply products to club stores, high street retail, mail order and a variety of distribution channels.


We have been very successful with our licensing business and established some firm relationships. On the back of this success we are now moving into Australia with some of our ranges and we are constantly looking for licensing opportunities, not necessarily in the football or sports-related industries.

Bespoke Merchandise

We understand standing out from the crowd is crucial. We work alongside our clients to understand their needs and identify areas for development and improvement. What differentiates us is our ability to interpret a customer’s brief and translate this into a full product range ready to go to market.


We have factories in Hong Kong and China where many of our products originate and have UK developers visiting the Far East numerous times over the year on dedicated sourcing and buying missions. This link with the Far East means we can obtain high quality products within tight time and cost constraints. We also work with a large network of UK and European suppliers on many product ranges, particularly on lower quantity orders.


Storm International are specialists in sourcing, branding, and supplying bespoke merchandise to a broad range of sectors including sports, leisure, charity, multiple retail, travel, and tourism.
