PPAI – Promotional Products Association International
The Promotional Products Association International is a professional trade association that was established over 100 years ago. Today it services the global promotional products industry.
In 1904 representatives of 12 promotional products manufacturers (manufacturers of advertising goods) agreed to form an industry trade association. The charter members addressed issues such as pricing, new ideas, business losses and managing salesmen, and adopted bylaws and operating procedures for the trade association.
Tradeshows became part of the Association’s conventions in 1914, with 32 exhibitors at the first show. The PPAI Expo—the industry’s premier tradeshow—is held each January in Las Vegas. It has become the place to be for promotional products professionals and companies to grow their business, build their network and increase their sales!
