Pro-Ad wins at the 2017 IPM COGS Awards

Promotional merchandise solutions company Pro-Ad has won two awards in the Promotional Merchandise category at the IPM COGS Awards 2017 held on September 22 at the St Pancras Renaissance Hotel in London.

Pro-Ad won the Gold Award for its work in producing bespoke colour coated computer mice for industrial paints company AkzoNobel. AkzoNobel was opening a new office in Amsterdam and wanted to supply each member of staff with a special corporate gift. Pro-Ad created a memorable gift that helped Akzo Nobel engage its staff.

The Silver Award went to Pro-Ad for its SSE Vulnerability Packs project. SSE requested Pro-Ad’s help in putting together 12,000 vulnerability packs that would be used to support vulnerable customers that live in remote areas, in the occasion of a power cut during storms. Pro-Ad sourced for SSE a range of branded products that were of the highest quality to achieve the campaign goals.

Pro-Ad’s managing director, Carlo Nardini, said: “We are delighted to have won the Gold and Silver awards at the IPM COGS Awards 2017, especially as we were competing against campaigns for popular brands with an international presence. The awards come as a great recognition of our team and their efforts in providing our clients with the best quality of service and innovative promotional merchandise solutions.”

COGS Awards are highly recognised among the biggest promotional marketing companies in the UK. The awards were launched by the IPM to recognise the huge contribution made by marketing services providers to the success of promotional campaigns.
