APPA Trade Show 2025

By Carmen Vitnell

This Monday I went to my first Australian Promotional Products Association trade show – and what an incredible experience!! Getting to put names to faces of so many suppliers I’ve worked with for years, and to meet so many new ones – that just expand the range of products I can offer my clients.

Made the rookie mistake of catching the train, which led to a 45m walk – but at least I got my steps in for the day – and apologies for anyone that witnessed my very poor e-Bike riding skills back to the train station with a basket full of show bags… 🚴‍♂️

One of the best parts was getting to see the direction the industry is moving, which is unsurprisingly towards more curated, thoughtful and sustainable products. A focus on eco-friendly – retail quality items, that are going to last and be used and remembered by your customer. Can’t wait to put these new connections to good use and bring more merch to life!

Send me a DM if you’re keen to take your branding to the next level 🛗 😉
