A European promotional products supplier is set to become one with a leading UK manufacturer by January 2019.
Following the PF Concept acquisition of SPS EU Ltd in December 2017, the two companies will become one operation in early 2019 under the name of PF Concept UK Ltd.
As part of the transition, PF Concept is making significant investments in the UK business to increase capacity, make it easier and faster for customers to place orders and deliver the best customer service possible.
After much consideration, and with the aim of providing our valued visitors and exhibitors with the best level of experience and return for their investment in time and support, the venues for the next two Merchandise World’s have been decided.
We hope you will find these venues as exciting as we do, and more importantly, we hope to see you there!
The 15th British Promotional Merchandise Association’s Annual General Meeting was held at The London Mathematical Society, Russell Square on Wednesday 7th November 2018. Graeme Smith opened his chairman’s review by summarising industry challenges and opportunities, the successful Merchandise World shows, research, member benefits, education, events for2018and 2019 and more, including the BPMA’s ProductMedia magazine which is now the principal magazine for the industry and continuing to grow.
Jon Birrell, the BPMA CEO, recently took part in a. BBC World Service radio programme called The Why Factor. The programme, which is to be broadcast later in the year examined the complexities around giving presents. As an industry expert, Birrell was invited to talk about promotional gifts having the ability to trigger an emotional reaction, resulting in a smile and a ‘thank you’ from the recipient. “Companies are very happy to create this level of positive feelings associated with their brands,” he said. “Compare this reaction to other forms of media that are here today and gone tomorrow.
As merchandise professionals, we are well aware of the power of product media to influence customers, motivate staff, and to help communicate a message. Which is great. However, to stop us preaching to the converted who have already bought into merchandise as a marketing tool, we have to keep getting our message out to those who may be less familiar with its benefits. That is why the BPMA has formed an end user group.
Deciding on content that is suitable for both suppliers and distributors, and relevant for the highest level MDs and business owners, as well as the customer-facing sales teams, marketing teams and future leaders is no easy task. This year, however, our workshop and training style Education Day will be fun, practical and engaging and perfect fora ll levels managing, overseeing or contributing to sales and/or marketing.
