Pro-Ad Celebrates a Successful 10th Promotional Products Expo
Posted on 04 April 2025

The Pro-Ad Expo 2025 was the ultimate promotional
products experience. Held at the iconic home of the Newcastle Falcons at Kingston
Park, this year’s event was all about pushing the boundaries with the theme Bigger,
Better, Greener – and it delivered in style.
Marketing and procurement professionals from across the region and beyond visited
the event, keen to explore the latest in promotional merchandise solutions. With over
30 stands and hundreds of products on show, covering specialist categories – from
trending innovations to tried-and-tested favourites – the Expo offered something for
every brand looking to make a lasting impression. From eco-friendly, British-made
gems to the latest in corporate clothing, the event proved there’s no one-size-fits-all
approach to making an impact with memorable and sustainable branded merchandise.
Carlo Nardini, founder of Pro-Ad, said:
"This wasn’t just another trade show – this was a full-on experience! We set out to
inspire, innovate, and show how creative merchandise can make a brand unforgettable.
The buzz on the show floor was electric, and the feedback from our visitors was beyond
exciting and heart-warming.”
The day featured more than just product inspiration – attendees got hands-on with live
product demos, enjoyed personalised product-sourcing sessions, and gained valuable
insights from educational seminars packed with real-world success stories. Speakers
shared how global brands are using merchandise to boost awareness, loyalty, and
support sustainability goals.
Standout products included notebooks made from coffee grounds and corn husks, a
sleek low-carbon reusable coffee cup, and – of course – the highly coveted Pro-Ad
goodie bags. These sustainable bags were filled with eco-conscious treats like branded
lunchboxes, sustainable stationery, promotional socks, and the latest in tech
solutions.

professionals, offering an exclusive opportunity to explore cutting-edge trends and
experience innovative sustainable merchandise solutions firsthand. A key moment in
