Promotional Products Blog Issue 44 - What will you remember the most about 2021?

Written by Sam Pella | Dec 17, 2021 2:22:29 PM

When you look back at 2021, what will you remember the most? We’ve had a meeting to reflect on the last year as team Pella.

 

We’ll be honest, some parts merge into 2020, and the two years are a little blurred, but with the help of milestones and babies, we’ve managed to see clearly what our 2021 round up looks like. 

 

Join us as we reflect on the good times we had:   

 

Kicking off the year with a 'work from home' message again! But we made the most of it …. Again! We had lots of zoom team meetings to keep everyone's spirits high. Even though most of us have worked together for years, we’ve never had so many chats and giggles in our kitchens (virtually). And we have never seen so much of all the babies and fur babies. 

 

 

Talking of babies, our team welcomed two new babies this year - Abbi and Adam, a beautiful baby girl Hattie and Sam and Mark, a gorgeous baby boy Benjamin.

 

Shantelle and Thomas got engaged, Abbi and Adam got married, and Dave and Julia celebrated their 50th birthdays! 

 

  

Pellacraft turned 40

 

 

We celebrated this milestone with our team, families, customers and suppliers. We love what we do, and it’s the people we continue to meet along the way that makes it the most enjoyable. We’ve been so lucky to have such lovely people in our lives.

 

The events and hospitality industry have had it hard with all the ups and downs throughout Covid. This has impacted our usual best sellers as companies pivot to the changes.

 

Here is some inspiration from our 2021 best selling promotional merchandise:

 

 

Bestseller #1: Mood Set 


Mood launched a range of beautifully designed gift sets this year. Companies have purchased the sets to welcome new starters or thank hard-working staff members.

 

This set features rich, soft-touch, tactile materials and bold colours. The collection includes life essentials from drinkware, notebook and ballpen – all with exquisite detail.

 

Check out this lovely Mood gift set here. 

 

 

 

Bestseller #2: Snood / Hat combo 

 

 

We couldn’t believe how popular the snood became in 2021. With the convenience and multi-purpose design to be used as a hat or neck cowl.

 

Made from ultra thermal fabric for warmth without weight. Available in 5 different colours with the option to embroider your logo onto the suprafleece snood/hat combo.

Bestseller #3: BIC Grip roller 

 

This wouldn’t be a bestsellers list if it didn’t include a pen!. The classic BIC grip roller with a chrome clip is designed to meet your branding needs. This pen is available in various colours, including black, navy blue, white, burgundy, apple green and yellow. 

 

The pen is professionally designed for comfort and glides across the paper with ease, guaranteeing a staple item with any recipient.

Bestseller #4: H2O Active: Base Sports Bottle 650ml 

 

 

We all became fond of a local walk to get an hour of outdoor freedom, didn’t we?! It’s not surprising to see a sports bottle in our 2021 best sellers list.

 

This 650ml customised base sports bottle is ergonomically designed. The bottle is incredibly versatile and customizable, thanks to the wide range of translucent and solid glossy colours.

Bestseller #5: Americano Renew Insulted Tumbler

 

Reflecting on the change in habits created due to the pandemic, we think back to our favourite coffee shops closing, leaving us without hot drinks to enjoy on our walks.

 

Again it’s no surprise to see this lovely double-wall insulated tumbler with a screw-on lid on our 2021 best sellers. This tumbler is 100% recyclable and packed in a home compostable bag made in the UK.

If we have inspired you with any of our bestsellers and you would like to place an order please get in touch. Our last post day is December 22nd and we close the next day, returning to the office on January 5th 2022. 

 

We hope you stay happy and healthy this Christmas break, here is to 2022, whatever that may be!
