For 16 years in the promotion industry, customers have been asking me, “Angela, which promotional products from China do you think will sell better this year ?” Or, “What kinds of promotional products will be popular this year?”
I have to say that such questions are too big to answer. In fact, the promotions industry is a very fast-changing one. Even lots of times, you have to visit YouTube, Instagram, or Twitter and suddenly may find a product is popular on these social networks. Although I could not tell you directly which products will become hugely popular this year. But I could list the following five series of products, in a short time, will not be out of date to my experience. Moreover, these products also have a common characteristic that the cost of importing from China is very low, which means the profits will be relatively high.
#1. T-shirts
Without a doubt, T-shirts are the best value for money of all promotional items and can be bought for $1.50 to $4.00 if you don’t have high demands for style and quality. Of course, there are also under $1.40 for selling, but the quality… frankly, they could only be worn several times. And the T-shirt also has other advantages, such as the MOQ is often not high and could be customized logo on the basis of about 100 pieces. The cost of making a logo varies from $0.2 to $0.65, depending on how complex the logo is. In addition, because of its small size, transportation is very convenient and cheap. It could deliver through international express rather than by sea freight.
#2. Office Stationery
Office stationery has long been one of the best promotional items that have endured. Usually, it is generally used as a business or exhibition promotional item. As the world’s largest exporter of stationery products, China has a complete industry chain and a large number of professional workers. Whether it is the design of a product, the production, or the printing of a logo, I believe that stationery products will always be one of the best choices.
#3. Mobile phone accessories
The proportion of mobile phones in modern life is increasing. Correspondingly, mobile accessories, such as phone shells, holders, or arm straps, are also a good market for promotions. And, such products are updated very quickly, this means that there are a lot of business opportunities in this market. In particular, the mobile phone shell, which is increasingly endowed with some fashion factors, is also used as a way to show personality and attitude to life. Some young people even have more than a dozen different styles and patterns of mobile phone shells, so their mobile will be without the same for half a month.
#4. Travel supplies
Every summer vacation is a time for relaxation. How could you remind your customers of your company’s brand while away from the office?
Travel supplies, like gargle suits, travel backpacks, and silicone travel bottles, are a good choice. These products will deepen the memories of your company, even when they travel. It even makes them feel like it was your company that accompanied him and his family on an unforgettable vacation.
#5. Sports products
In recent years, a healthy and self-disciplined lifestyle has become increasingly popular. More and more people are involved in physical exercise, and the corresponding market for sporting goods continues to expand. Moreover, the audience of sporting goods is quite wide, from children to the elderly, almost everyone is a potential consumer. Naturally, such products will also endure for a long time. Today, the most popular sports promotional items can be divided into sports water bottles, sports towels, running accessories, cycling accessories, and other such categories.
