Guides & Resources
We’ve been branding South Africa’s gifts and clothing since 2010, and we’ve answered every question in these guides a thousand times, usually over a cup of coffee. Here’s everything you need to know, from choosing the right gift to getting it delivered. And if you’d rather just chat to a real person, we’d love that too.

Fancy Inc started in 2010, when founder Maranda van Dam (whose first business, at age 12, involved three donkeys and a great idea) turned her love of detail and relationships into a branding company. Today we work with names like KFC, Mercedes-Benz and Mugg & Bean, and our 4.9-star Google rating from over 228 reviews is the thing we polish most proudly. More than just merch. Your name, our game.
