Branded USB keys are lightweight, small and desirable. Data storage on portable devices is a necessity given the large usage extent of computers, and flash memory cards meet users’ needs in all respects.

Branded USB gifts are also a lot cheaper than brochures, and they have a wow effect on the customers that are responsive to high tech innovations. The data on the branded USB drives has to be pre-loaded either during the manufacturing or afterwards. If the files are sensitive to alterations they have to be encrypted or protected.

Unlike printed promotional materials that require special transportation, branded USB devices are very easy and cheap to carry.

The branded USB drives are usually provided by companies specialized in customization services. The end products should have good branding, high quality design and enough storage space.
