Promotional products are often a key component in a business’s marketing strategy with the cost per impression or the return on investment being highly attractive. Businesses are increasingly choosing to work with distributors who can develop product strategies that connect with their target audience both locally and across the world.
Businesses have become more considered in their approach, investing in products to engage with employees and customers that align with brand values, are made from more sustainable materials and are useful, helping to generate as many brand impressions as possible.

Promotional products comprise an increasingly important part of a company’s marketing mix, conveying a company’s brand values and identity to its stakeholders. The return that promotional products deliver, in respect of brand awareness relative to the level of investment, makes them a valuable marketing and engagement tool for all businesses, particularly at times where budgets are constrained. The Directors consider the promotional products industry to be highly fragmented, typified by the large number of promotional product distributors.
