Promo Marketing, the Philadelphia-based source of product and marketing information for distributor sales professionals, today announced the Top 50 Suppliers of 2016.
Now in its 10th year, the Top 50 Suppliers list is the industry’s definitive ranking of fastest movers and power players. For the first time, the No. 1-ranked industry supplier has reached the $1 billion mark in annual promotional product sales mark. Additionally, due to a number of acquisitions, as well as strong sales for suppliers, this year’s Top 50 includes eight companies making their first appearance on the list.
“This year’s Top 50 Suppliers are proof that our industry continues to grow, with combined promotional products sales of almost $5.3 billion—a 9.4 percent increase over last year,” Kyle A. Richardson, editorial director for Promo Marketing, said. “We’re happy to see many of the industry’s most influential businesses continue to grow, and excited to see so many companies break into the top tier for the first time.”
The Top 5 Suppliers of 2016 are:
- alphabroder
