As a matter of language, if a well-known person or organisation had made special arrangements for you to supply them (so it was by previous arrangement rather than general trade), then there would be nothing incorrect in saying "by appointment to Celeby McFamous" or whatever. Indeed, as a matter of language they wouldn't even have to be well-known.
As a matter of tact, the expression is so strongly associated with Royal Warrants (which only relate to the households of three particular members of the British royal family), that it would make both you and your famous patron look foolish. You could maybe get away with it if something was clearly a joke, but you'd be skating on thin ice.
