Read what some of our visitors had to say about Printwear & Promotion LIVE! 2024.
John and Francesca Williams, Exeter Prints
“We used to exhibit so wanted to see the show from a completely different perspective as a visitor. It was really interesting to see different products and the next steps. And also, really inspirational for new garments. We are trying to get some new designs and inspiration. The visit was really useful, we were meant to leave an hour ago! It’s been really good and really inspiring for us especially that we are now here trying to push our small business and make it our full-time business. I think we will come next year. We spoke the whole journey here discussing ideas and now there’s a lot to talk about on the way home!”
Allan Burns and Ali Ahmed, Apparel Hut
“We came to look at new embroidery machines and DTF technology, as well as to catch up with our existing suppliers and to look for new garments. While here we purchased some new heat presses and a DTF machine. We think it’s a really good show and found the visit really worthwhile. Would absolutely recommend the exhibition!”
Gordon Chalmers, Olivia Noakes and Neil Watson, The University of Edinburgh Gift Shop
“The show is really good. There’s a good mix of exhibitors and everyone is really friendly and very helpful. We have suppliers that we already buy products from so we came to see their new ranges, but we also met with some new people that we might potentially look at. Seeing Stanley / Stella and Beechfield’s new ranges has been really exciting. We always recommend the exhibition. There is no other show where you can go round and see all the physical products in one place.”
Emilie-Jane Osborne, Stu Linfield and Emma Nicole, Sea Dog Print Studio
“We had a really good first experience at the show. Everyone has been really friendly and welcoming. We came to what products were available. It’s nice to see everything in one place and to see people that we already deal with. Putting names to faces. It was also nice to see other brands that we have only ever seen on the computer or things that have been advertised to us. There are also some brands that we’ve seen but have never heard of so that was good. One brand would recommend someone else to go and see and that was quite good, to be pointed in the right direction.”
Marcus Shaylor, Outpost Custom
“It was a really good visit with a lot to see. I currently work in clothing and would like to go into the printing side of things, so it was good to get some advice. I would definitely recommend the show.”
Amit Valand, Stitch by Valand
“I came for two days and it’s been amazing! I came mainly to network. I saw all the brands that I work with and also met new people, which was good. I am new in the industry as well and it was a really useful visit. I think The Knowledge Centre and The Decoration Advice Suite were good as well. I really look forward to coming back to the next one.”
Kirsty Samson and Jacquie Richards, Image Ideas
“The show exceeded our expectations. We visited for two days.”
