Thank you for a very good show in
Vegas. I have been a part of this
industry and worked trade shows
with Suntex for 20 years, and I can
say it was the best. The quality of
distributors was excellent. I cannot
remember this much interest in my
products or the volume of people
trying to get in my booth.

This was the best Expo I’ve been
to so far. I loved the keynotes and the
classes, and the show was gigantic
as ever. Great work to all of you at PPAI.

Congratulations To PPAI Hall
Of Fame Inductees
During the Chairman’s Leadership
Dinner at The PPAI Expo 2015, the
Association welcomed the 78th and 79th
inductees into the PPAI Hall of Fame—
Fran Ford, CAS, and Paul Kiewiet,
MAS+, CIP, CPC. Ford and Kiewiet
were honored for their dedication and
leadership in the promotional products
industry and their service to its people,
companies and organizations.
I can say from experience that Fran
Ford is one of the most caring, generous
and knowledgeable people I have had
the pleasure of meeting in our industry.
He is always willing to help guide some-
one who is less experienced in our field
learn a wealth of strategies they didn’t
know before talking to Fran. I am so
genuinely happy and proud for Fran.
What a deserving inductee to the PPAI
Hall of Fame.
