One supplier, not four
A designer, a printer, a signage contractor and a merchandise broker each own a piece of your brand, and none of them owns the outcome. The result drifts. We hold the whole job.

Why brands move to us
Four problems we hear on almost every first call.
Deadlines that hold
Events, launches and tenders do not move. When work is brokered across workshops nobody controls the schedule. Producing in-house means the timeline is ours to keep.
Consistent, on-brand output
Faded print, drifting colour and cheap merchandise do not read as a saving: they read as the brand. We match colour across every process because we run every process.
Design included, not outsourced
Most suppliers print only what you hand them. If you do not have artwork, we will develop it: concept through to production-ready files.
Most Nairobi suppliers broker your job across three separate workshops. Every process below runs in our own production house, which is why the colour matches, the schedule holds, and one team answers for the result.
Nine processes. One roof.
01
Digital Printing
Short-to-medium runs with fast setup: the workhorse behind cards, flyers, profiles and everyday collateral.
02
UV Printing
Ink cured instantly with ultraviolet light, so it prints onto rigid and awkward surfaces, acrylic, wood, metal, promotional items, and resists scratching.
03
Vinyl Cutting
Precision-cut adhesive vinyl for wall branding, vehicle graphics, window work and signage lettering.
04
DTF Printing
Direct-to-film transfers that carry full-colour, detailed artwork onto fabric: including blends that resist conventional screen printing.
05
Heat Transfer Pressing
Heat and pressure to bond transfers permanently to garments and textiles: the finishing step behind much of our apparel work.
06
Large Format Printing
Wide-format output for banners, billboards, roll-ups, gazebos and building wraps at full outdoor scale.
07
Embroidery
Stitched branding for caps, polos, jackets and uniforms: the finish corporate clients expect where a print would wear off.
08
Fiber Marking
Laser marking that engraves permanently into metal and hard substrates: for name tags, tools, trophies and asset tagging.
09
Sublimation
Dye bonded into the material itself rather than sitting on top: used for mugs, flasks, mousepads and polyester apparel that will not crack or peel.
What we do
Promotional Items
Branded merchandise your clients and staff actually keep: notebooks, pens, mugs, flasks, water bottles, umbrellas, tote bags and corporate gifts, produced in-house and finished to a standard that reflects the brand on them.
Learn more →Banners
Large-format display that has to survive a Nairobi week outdoors and still look sharp. Roll-up, media, telescopic and teardrop banners, flags and billboards: printed on our own large-format equipment.
Learn more →Apparel Branding
Uniforms and staff kit branded by the right process for the fabric: embroidery where it needs to last, DTF and heat transfer where the artwork is complex. Caps, hoodies, t-shirts, jackets, polos, overalls, dustcoats, reflectors and full uniform sets.
Learn more →Digital Printing
The everyday print a business runs on, done properly: business cards, flyers, brochures, company profiles, catalogues, booklets, letterheads, certificates, menus, price lists and posters.
Learn more →Signage
Indoor and outdoor signage fabricated and installed by our own team: 3D and 2D letters, neon, lightboxes, acrylic, directional, safety and roadside signs. Installation is bespoke to the site, not a standard bracket and a hope.
Learn more →Stickers, Wall & Vehicle Branding
Vinyl cut and applied on site: full and partial vehicle wraps, wall branding for offices and retail, and window graphics. The application is where these jobs are won or lost, so we do it ourselves.
Learn more →Print-Ready Graphic Design
Design on its own, when you are printing elsewhere: including abroad. You get correctly set-up, print-ready artwork with the bleed, colour profile and file format the production house needs, so nothing is lost in translation.
Learn more →Election Printing
Campaign material produced at campaign speed: posters, banners, flyers, stickers, wheel covers and branded display, printed in the volumes and on the deadlines an election actually runs to.
Learn more →Events Display
Everything that makes a stand, a launch or a conference look like it was planned: backdrops, roll-ups, teardrops, gazebos, brochure stands, nametags and selfie frames.
Learn more →Packaging
Printed cartons, gift boxes, kraft and jute bags, and the adhesive labels that go on them. Branded packaging is the last thing a customer touches and the part they photograph.
Learn more →Photo Printing & Framing
Photographic printing, mounting, canvas and framing: for offices, reception walls, awards, exhibitions and anything that deserves to be on a wall rather than on a phone.
Learn more →Questions we get asked
Straight answers, including the one about timing.
What does Number One Brands actually do?
We are a one-stop branding and printing house. We design, we print, and we install: corporate merchandise, apparel, banners, signage, vehicle and wall branding, and everyday business print. Design and production both happen with us, so one team owns the result.
How long will my job take?
It depends entirely on the job. A run of business cards and a fabricated lightbox are not the same piece of work. Tell us what you need and by when, and we will give you a straight answer on timing before you commit: we would rather turn down a deadline than miss one.
What makes you different from other print shops in Nairobi?
We run all nine production processes in-house: digital, UV, vinyl cutting, DTF, heat transfer, large format, embroidery, fiber marking and sublimation. Most suppliers broker your job across three separate workshops, which is where delays, colour drift and finger-pointing come from. With us it is one team and one standard.
Do you deliver outside Nairobi?
Yes. We are based in Nairobi CBD and serve clients countrywide.
What do you charge?
We quote per project rather than publishing a price list, because material, quantity and finish change the cost significantly. Send us the brief and you will get a written quote.
