Conclusions

...

Overview

LiteFarm has shared that based on the above analysis: “I liked Ethical Swag. Drop shipping seems like a better option for our volume and having a partner that aligns with our values is important. I'm OK with paying a slight premium for those two qualities”

...

  • Possible non-profit discount

  • CAD vs USD

  • Accurate shipping and tax

Suggestion

...

I would suggest we move forward with Printful as the first choice to get a sample. Swag would be my second choice. Keep in mind they are very different on how they operate.
