Its offer includes corporate gifts, customised clothing, workwear and uniforms. Owner Anthony Cafolla states that he has over 40 years of experience in the promotional products sector.

The business describes working with clients to develop promotional campaigns around their goals and budgets, including product launches, brand awareness and employee rewards. It works with suppliers, wholesalers and printers to source products, and offers advice on selecting merchandise and presenting a logo on the chosen item.

Products and personalisation

Its website highlights several product groups that buyers can explore alongside its corporate gifts and clothing offer:

• Promotional bags and technology products.
• Eco and sustainable pens and notebooks.
• Seeds and plants, plus umbrellas.
• Workwear and uniforms, alongside customised clothing.

A specific recycled product is the Porto Eco Coaster, whose cover material is rPET made from recycled plastic bottles. The product page lists debossing, foil blocking and full colour personalisation, a 90 x 90mm print area and a product size of 100 x 100 x 5mm. It also lists the Stanley IceFlow™ 2.0 700ml Water Bottle among its latest products.

Artwork and branding methods

Its branding options page lists screen printing, pad printing, acid etching, engraving, litho and four colour process printing, transfer printing, digital printing, hot foil blocking, embroidery, weaving and labelling as available technologies. Staff advise on which method can be used for the selected product and the buyer’s logo or message.

AA Promotional Products says it accepts almost any electronic artwork file for Mac or PC. Buyers can email files to its studio for suitability checks, and the business asks for artwork early so it can advise on presentation. Its embroidery description covers garments and bags, while hot foil blocking is described for leather or PVC diaries and desk sets.

Enquiries and catalogues

The company aims to answer enquiries within 24 hours through its quoting service. Buyers can request a free printed catalogue or view a flipbook; its website says it holds its most current information, pricing and product offerings. The Porto Eco Coaster page includes enquiry and sample request options and lists a one week lead time for that product.
