Genumark x TESI: A Greener Merch Movement Starts This April!

We’re excited to share a powerful new initiative between Genumark and TESI (TELUS Environmental Solutions Inc.), and it’s rooted (pun intended) in purpose. All April and May long, we’re making it easier than ever for you to turn your branded merchandise into a force for good by planting trees!

Genumark's commitment: April 2025

We’re putting our green where our mouth is:

🌳 For every invoice over $1,000—we’ll plant 5 trees.
Want to match us? That only costs $20 total and together we will plant 10 trees!
Ask your Genumark rep to calculate your impact—we’re happy to help! 

May 2025.

We’ve partnered with our supplier, Gemline, to double the planet impact! For any order over $1,500 for Gemline products, we will plant a combined 20 trees.

*Contact your Genumark sales rep for more details.

Why trees? Why now?

It only takes $4 to plant one tree, kelp, or mangrove through TESI. That means even the smallest addition to your order can have a massive environmental impact. For example: Buy a $60 hoodie? Add $4 and you’ve planted a tree.
Simple. Powerful. Accessible. 

Want to round up your invoice? Example: go from $960 to $1000, that’s ten trees right there! 

But we’re not stopping at donations—we’re designing this initiative right into the merch you love. Because a good story doesn’t belong in the background. 

Make the message part of the product.

Let’s incorporate impact directly into your design.

Apparel.

Add a custom woven label or neck tag to show that every piece planted a tree. Perfect for team gear, giveaways, or client gifting. 

Notebooks.

Feature the “this book planted a tree” message on the inside cover or back cover. Great for conferences, onboarding kits, or hospitality leave-behinds. 

Tech & travel gear.

Backpacks, duffels, chargers—embed your eco story into the hang tag or packaging. Build a product line that speaks to your values. 

Stores.

If you run a branded store, we can help you: 

  • Add trees into the cost of specific items 
  • Let customers add a tree at checkout 
  • Offer a choice: gift item vs. tree planted, or both 
Industry-specific tree planting ideas.

We know your impact depends on your audience—so we’ve made this adaptable to your world.

Hospitality.

When a guest opts out of turndown service, plant a tree instead. We’ll help you track and plant your total.

Camps & youth programs .

Bake one tree into every registration fee. Every camper = one tree planted = one growing legacy.

Events & conferences.

Plant 1 to 20 trees per attendee. Acknowledge the carbon cost of travel with a meaningful way to give back to the earth through the growth of healthy forests.

Company stores.

Add trees to product lines or give customers the power to make the planet part of their purchase. 

What makes TESI different?

TESI isn’t just scattering seeds and hoping for the best. They:

🌱 Plant the right species in the right places 

🌿 Prioritize biodiversity and long-term survival 

🌊 Support carbon sequestration in forests, kelp beds, and mangroves 

🌍 Work with local communities to ensure success 

 

It’s not just planting. It’s responsible restoration. 

Let's grow together.

This April and May, we’re inviting you to turn every t-shirt, every backpack, every notebook, and every invoice into something bigger—a story of impact and intentionality. Let’s make caring for our planet more than just a one-time donation – let’s make it a movement.
