Promotional cooler bags are the summer hit you need

By Melanie VandenBoogaard

With temperatures rising and more people spending time outdoors, promotional cooler bags are the perfect gifts or incentives for employees, customers and supporters. From keeping snacks and drinks cold to storing personal items in multifunctional pockets while on the go, coolers are made for favorite summer happenings. Here, Melanie, our bag expert, offers exciting ways to use branded coolers to promote your event or company in various places.

On the golf course

With golf being so popular, summer golf outings make great fundraisers. “If you’re really looking to impress,” said Melanie, “consider a larger-capacity cooler, like the TravisMathew^® Cruise Cooler, which boasts a 30-can capacity.”

At the end of the event, raffle off a 6-Can Golf Bag Cooler stocked with everything they’ll need for future rounds. This compact promotional insulated bag features pockets to hold golf tees, divot tools, keys and other essentials.

A round of golf is also a fun way to reward employees for all their hard work and a job well done. Team members can spend time together outside the office, which increases feelings of belonging and contentment. The slim TravisMathew Gimme Cooler features an attached bottle opener plus your full-color imprint. It’s a winning promo employees are sure to appreciate. For something a little larger, the TravisMathew Chill’n Cooler holds 15 cans in the compartment with fold-down sides.

On the water

Whether taking to the beach or out boating for the day, these promotional cooler bags stand up to the elements—sand, sun and water—while helping to keep beverages and snacks at the ideal temperature. “On-the-go activities require a cooler that can keep up with the action, and we’ve got plenty to choose from,” said Melanie.

The Daybreak Road Trip Cooler features a secure side pocket that holds up to a 40 oz. tumbler—even with a handle. The Koozie^® Olympus 24-Can Cooler Backpack carries easily anywhere and features front straps that can hold a towel or blanket. Keep drinks cool and accessible all day with the Igloo^® Seadrift Hard Lined Cooler. The easy-open top hatch means refreshments are always close at hand. And the removable liner makes cleanup a breeze!

At backyard gatherings

Nothing says summer like an outdoor cookout. Company picnics and barbecues are great ways to bring your team together and celebrate your successes.

“Consider co-branding with a Life is Good Koozie^® Party Cooler, and let the good times roll!” said Melanie. “The open-top, tub-style cooler is quick and easy to fill and allows guests to help themselves.” The Koozie Heathered Tailgate Rolling Cooler makes it easier to transport a heavy load of drinks and food—plus pockets store essentials like utensils and napkins.

Our exclusive Crossland^® 20-Can Outdoor Cooler has a removable liner for easy cleaning plus compression straps on the back to hold a rolled-up picnic blanket. It also includes a bottle opener, so they’ll never scramble to find one!

At a festival

Summer is the time for festivals, whether it’s concerts, state fairs, food fests or cultural gatherings. “The following promotional insulated bags can hold their water bottle and keep their ID, phone and cards handy,” said Melanie.

For hands-free carrying, consider the Sullivan Crossbody Cooler, which features an adjustable strap plus an exterior pocket for additional storage. The ultra-sporty Midway Crossbody Bottle Bag secures with a drawstring closure and accommodates various bottle heights.

Carry a snack and water in the Koozie Rowdy Fanny Pack Cooler, which also provides hands-free carrying but with eye-catching, retro flair. Or reach for the Sandpiper Cooler Sling. Its sleek design can be worn over the shoulder or across the body.
