Custom Printing Services · Branded Materials · Guadeloupe & Caribbean
40 staff t-shirts for your tournament, 500 flyers for your guesthouse, 3 roll-up banners for a trade show: Kimoun works with you in two ways — full-service management (graphic design, strategy, print proof, production) or pure technical execution if your files are ready. We also support tourism operators, events and Caribbean projects that need printed materials prepared locally in Guadeloupe. Either way, the right production partner is selected for your project: industrial for volume and price, local craftsman for urgency and quality finishes.

What’s blocking your print project
Four blockers Kimoun hears every week — the reason why many events, tourism businesses and independent professionals in Guadeloupe and across the Caribbean give up on professional print for lack of a straightforward point of contact.
3 to 5 weeks lead time, unpredictable customs, shipping costs that eat into the budget, risk of damage on arrival. And if you missed one detail, you’re back to square one for another month. Your flyers arrive after the event — it has happened to everyone.
Print delivered late is useless — you might as well not order it.
“We don’t do fewer than 500 flyers.” “Minimum 100 t-shirts.” For a 30-member club, a business just launching, or an 80-person event, those thresholds make no sense. You over-order by default and the surplus ends up in storage.
You pay for 500 flyers, you hand out 180 — the rest goes in the bin six months later.
You want 15 polo shirts for your team? 40 t-shirts for your association? Test 3 samples with different finishes before committing to 200 pieces? You’re quoted a minimum of 100, shown a design you never approved, or told that short runs “aren’t profitable”. Short-run custom textile and sampling remain a grey area locally.
Team identity projects that never happen because no one takes short runs and testing seriously.
DTF, screen printing, embroidery, heat transfer: workshop vocabulary. Each technique has its price, its look, its durability — but no printer takes the time to explain. You choose blindly, sometimes the wrong finish for your need (screen printing on 5 t-shirts = too expensive; embroidery on a thin sweatshirt = poor result).
A quote with no guidance = a client who regrets it after delivery.
Temporarily reduced capacity
T-shirt and fabric display banner orders are currently reserved for ongoing projects and repeat orders from existing clients. The good news: everything else is available right now, and July is coming fast.

Kimoun’s 6 production pillars
Each pillar covers a product category. Kimoun selects between an industrial workshop (volume, price, wide range) and a local craftsman (proximity, urgency, custom finishes) based on your project, then coordinates from start to finish — one point of contact, whether you are based in Guadeloupe or ordering from elsewhere in the Caribbean.
From short run to large run — 5, 50 or 500 pieces — finish options: DTF (Direct to Film, short runs and rich colour results), screen printing (large runs, wash-resistant), embroidery (premium polo shirts and sweatshirts, quality look). Kimoun recommends the finish that matches your quantity, budget and expected result — and explains it upfront. For those hesitating between two techniques, a sample pack lets you compare in hand before committing.
Mugs, caps, lanyards, pens, event tote bags, die-cut stickers, outdoor vinyl decals. Logo personalisation, no minimum (10 to several thousand), individual packaging available for event distribution.
Matt/gloss/soft-touch laminated business cards, A5/A4 double-sided flyers, three-fold leaflets, stapled or perfect-bound brochures, A3/A2/A1 posters. Paper weights up to 350 gsm, coated or uncoated stocks, professional finishes (spot UV, gold foil, embossing on request).
Pull-up banners 85×200 or 100×200 cm with carry case for stands and trade shows, fabric display banners for indoor use, folding X-banners, advertising flags (beach flags, pennant flags, pole flags), 3 mm correx board panels for temporary signage. All displays are self-assembly — easy to transport in a car, set up in minutes on site, no installation contractor to coordinate.
PVC/dibond panels for shop signs, professional plaques, window vinyl (cut lettering or full print), micro-perforated one-way window film, welcome totems, door plaques. Advice on UV resistance and adhesion depending on the surface: glass, masonry or metal.
No file ready? No brand guidelines? Kimoun handles the entire creative process: event artwork, campaign layouts, adaptation of your identity across all formats (textile, paper, signage). Press-ready file (CMYK, 300 dpi, bleed, crop marks), print proof sent for written approval before production. Zero surprises at delivery. If you already have print-ready files (technical execution track), we simply check them — no unnecessary design fees.
How it works
within 48 business hours
You describe your need (product type, quantity, desired delivery date). Kimoun recommends the most suitable finish for your budget and expected result, then sends a firm quote with price, lead time and finish options.
1 to 3 days
If you already have files, we check press compliance (CMYK, 300 dpi, bleed). If not, Kimoun creates the artwork within your brand guidelines. Back-and-forth rounds available to adjust before the print proof.
4 to 8 days
Proof sent for written approval — nothing goes to production without your sign-off. Once approved, the job goes to the most suitable partner workshop (textile, paper or large format). Quality control at the end of the production run.
1 to 2 days
Free delivery in Guadeloupe and Martinique (shipping costs included in our prices) or click & collect in Le Moule. For events, delivery coordinated with your date (day before or morning of, depending on distance) — large-format displays arrive in carry cases, self-assembly in minutes. A small free-correction reserve applies if a manufacturing defect is found.
Why Kimoun
Kimoun is based in Le Moule, Guadeloupe. Olivier Watte, founder, has 20 years on the ground in Guadeloupe and has built over time a dual production partner network: large-capacity industrial workshops (volume, very wide textile and paper catalogue, competitive pricing) and local craftsmen and printers in Guadeloupe (proximity, urgency, premium finishes). For each project, Kimoun selects the right channel based on four criteria.
Your budget — industrial for volume-based pricing, local craftsman when margin needs to stay tight on a short run. Your deadline — local Guadeloupe craftsman if you need it within days, industrial for a longer-lead order. Your quantity — industrial from a few dozen pieces for economies of scale, local craftsman for 1 to 30 pieces at a fair unit price. Your expected quality level — industrial for a reliable professional standard, local craftsman for custom finishes and premium requests.
You have one single point of contact from brief to delivery — whichever track you choose (full service or technical execution), whichever channel is mobilised behind the scenes.
Typical case
A scenario Kimoun encounters several times a year in Guadeloupe — sports clubs, cultural associations, company committees. Five scenes to understand how a tangible identity project falls through the cracks, and four steps to save it.
No magic — a method refined on this type of mixed order.
Kimoun client reviews
The reviews below cover web and identity projects, but describe the same method as for print: listening to the brief, a clear quote, delivery as promised.
🎨 Identité & communicationOur team is spread across Guadeloupe, Martinique, mainland France and London. Oliver supported us on the brand guidelines, the logo, the editorial charter and the site structure. His availability and method allowed us to wrap up the project and realign the team around clear, shared goals.
🌐 Publication & visibilitéOur association website was slow and invisible on Google. Since Oliver took over the project, we rank first on Google in Guadeloupe and Martinique. All our members can now publish content, and we have since carried out other projects together with the same success.
