It’s our birthday today!!!

Today, Empire Promo turns 11!

11 years ago, I took a leap of faith and started a business with a vision, a whole lot of determination, and absolutely no idea where the journey would take me.

Over the years, we’ve had incredible highs, navigated tough challenges, adapted through changing times, and continued to grow. Through it all, one thing has remained constant, the amazing people who have trusted Empire Promo with their brands.

To every client who has placed an order, referred us, supported us, cheered us on, or simply believed in what we do… thank you. You are the reason we’ve reached this milestone. This year has felt exceptionally tough. But we’re still here!

A huge thank you as well to our suppliers who have been part of the journey over the past 11 years.

I’m incredibly proud of what we’ve built, and even more excited about what’s still to come.

Here’s to 11 years of helping businesses stand out and to many more ahead!

Thank you, thank you, thank you!

If you are needing apparel, uniforms or branded merch please hit me up! We would love to work with you!

❤️ Gem and The Empire crew!

They have a hydrophobic silicon vent at the bottom that equalises the air pressure! These would make awesome corporate gifts with your logo on! They come in different sizes and styles.
