History

Verboom's journey traces back to 2005 when Phil Callaghan, working at Te Papa, noticed the buzz around a manual badge machine at the kids' center. This sparked the idea of turning creativity into tangible memories. Phil acquired a badge machine, setting up shop in his garage and crafting sporting memorabilia. The resounding success of the Lions Rugby Tour in 2005 fueled the growth that led Verboom from working out of a home garage and selling badges at Farmers Markets to our first cozy shop in Left Bank, Cuba St Wellington in 2006.

In 2008, the Verboom team expanded with the addition of William Stewart, as a market consultant and graphic designer. After several sucessful years working together,  Phil's decision to extend Verboom to Australia in 2013 led William to take over the New Zealand business. The business transitioned to Christchurch, initially working out of a shop in Cathedral Junction until 2016. Recognizing the evolving landscape of consumer behavior, Verboom embraced the digital era and became a predominantly online business in 2016.

Today, Verboom operates from an office in Sockburn, shipping orders daily, offering personalized consultations, fittings, and a decade of industry expertise. From badge making to a diverse range of custom printing services, Verboom's commitment to flexibility, quality, and client satisfaction remains steadfast as it enters the next chapter of crafting memories and helping bring your creative vision to a finished product.
