The most authoritative and comprehensive research report in the promotional products industry, the Counselor State of the Industry, published by the Advertising Specialty Institute® shows average order values, distributor margins, client retention and number of error-free orders are fully recovered to pre-pandemic levels. Notably, total 2022 promo revenue matched 2019’s figure of $25.8 billion.
“It’s official: After a few hard-fought years, the promo industry is well on its way to becoming even bigger and better than ever” said Timothy M. Andrews, president and chief executive officer of ASI, the leading technology, marketing and information provider in the promo products industry. “And ASI’s State of the Industry (SOI) report is promo’s most essential toolkit for success.”
ASI Media’s award-winning research report – packed with in-demand findings – provides exclusive statistics covering nine pivotal business topics, including products, pricing, sales, markets and international sourcing trends. ASI collected data for its annual report through extensive surveys of ASI members across North America.
“While challenges persist, this year’s report equips readers with a wealth of insights and strategies to finish the year strong and reach greater heights in 2024 and beyond,” said ASI Editor-in-Chief C.J. Mittica. “From valuable efficiency tips to techniques for juicing order values, we’ve got it all covered, to guide distributors and suppliers through a resounding recovery to enduring success.”
Here are highlights from the 2023 Counselor State of the Industry:
“To me, as our ongoing research clearly shows, the growth in the influence and prevalence of apparel over the last 10 years has been staggering,” said Nate Kucsma, report author and ASI’s senior executive director of research. “Promo isn’t just following trends; in many cases, it’s spearheading them.”
