6 Markets Looking for Leather Promos
Gifts and awards have emerged as a major lifeline for the promo industry. Clients of all sectors are looking for ways to thank and show appreciation for staff, consumers and clients alike, which allows distributors like you to fulfill lots of orders. Leather goods are one of the trendiest and most impressive product categories you can present for this important need – and we’re rounding up the top leather promos you should pitch for each project type, plus key selling points that will win you the order.
#1: Giveaways & Promotions
Increase brand awareness with high-quality handouts.
There’s a reason why public opinion of promo isn’t always favorable: Consumers don’t want low-quality, single-use items, especially as public concern about carbon emissions grows. If your clients really want to get noticed at their promotional events, advise them to invest in high-quality, price-friendly promos instead. For example, you can provide dozens of affordable handcrafted leather pieces from leading supplier Rustico, including inexpensive leather keychains, minimalist wallets or pocket notebooks with your client’s logo on them – all for low prices any business can afford.

#2: Events & Retreats
In-person or virtual,
these event promos will make a mark.
Events haven't stopped happening – they just look a little different these days. Expect to see virtual events continue as companies are now realizing the ease of connectivity remote events allow. That said, in-person events will likely restart with vigor, and companies will want to convey the excitement they feel from gathering together once more with promos that excite just as much. Whether your clients are meeting virtually or in-person, items like leather journals, notebooks, and travel and tech accessories make thoughtful gifts and create cohesive event "spaces," no matter where attendees are located.
