CONNECT
toward them. They knew the US Toy brand and reputation. After going
through our catalogs, they intuitively knew that our wide range of products
had great promotional potential. Our Free Freight incentives, no MOQ
requirements, and customer-centric approach were attractive to them as
well as our eagerness to engage with them in product development. This
prompted us to become more proactive toward the promotional market
segment. Joining PPAI was an integral part of that directive.
What’s your favorite thing about being in the promotional products
industry?
Working with promotional products companies means working with
highly creative and innovative people. Everyone at US Toy loves seeing how
our products—usually meant for use by children—are used in creative and
inventive ways. Bouncy balls, drinkware, squeeze balls, noisemakers, even
whoopee cushions—the list goes on and on—have been used as promotional
products. We also get to become a part of the creative process when promo-
tional companies come to US Toy to create a new product from the ground
up utilizing our manufacturing sources and knowledgeable sourcing team.
Why did you join PPAI?
As a company, US Toy felt that if we wanted to
engage the promotional industry, joining PPAI was the logical thing to do.
We heard great things about PPAI from other customers and vendors. The
PPAI annual tradeshow had great reviews as well. We felt we needed to
attend this show in order for US Toy to truly maximize our growth opportu-
nities in the promotional products category.
