A system and method for production of a customizable food and beverage cooler are disclosed. In one embodiment of the system, a mold includes two primary halves configured to produce an injection molded part that is a component of the food and beverage cooler. An aperture intersects one of the primary halves of the mold to accommodate an insertion block that includes a reverse image thereon such that molten plastic flow around the reverse image produces an integrally molded image on the component of the food and beverage cooler. Further, the aperture accommodates a combination insertion block and insertion plate having the reverse image thereon. One of the insertion block or combination insertion block and insertion plate is selected for disposing in the aperture based on the desired production run of the injection molded part.
