Made up of 8 independent brands, Nerdy Banana specialises in print on demand, e-commerce and brand building. With over 5 years under our belt, our young passionate team are looking to the future with confidence.
Our story began in early 2012 when 19-year-old founder Charlie Rodman, took a gap year after college to set up a personalised clothing business Doodletogs from his parent's home. After a quick 3-month stint the following year at Leeds University, Charlie decided to drop out to focus on the business.
Working from his parents home over the next 2 years, the business gained its first employee and outgrew the spare bedroom. Since then the business has worked with global brands such as Discovery Channel, ITV, Youtube and Google to provide printed merchandise and develop e-commerce solutions. Fundraising platform Teefunder was also launched to help teams and charities raise money through the sale of custom t-shirts.
Seeing a market and demand for a range of personalised products, Supersocks was born, with the goal to make socks and underwear fun. Soon followed Dogsy, unique gifts for dogs and owners and thereafter Wrapsy, a one-stop solution for custom wrapping paper.
Nerdy Banana was created in 2018 to house our family of companies. Currently employing a team of over 20, the business recently relocated to Birmingham, UK with our international offices based in Los Angeles, USA
