The news is even more exciting as it marks the fifth consecutive year that we've been honoured with this fantastic award, which is voted for by our peers across the promotional merchandise industry.

The Sourcing City Awards are hosted each year by Sourcing City, with a range of different categories celebrating the UK's network of promotional product distributors and suppliers. Each category has a winner and runners-up, with distributors voting for suppliers and suppliers voting for distributors. 

Dave, our co-founder and Systems Director, says: “This is a testament to the hard work of our team, as well as the relationships they have across the industry with our suppliers. Five consecutive years is simply fantastic.”

Dave, Michelle and Jay with our very first Sourcing City award in 2019.

We first won the award back in 2019 and have won it back-to-back ever since - an incredible achievement that we'd have never imagined possible. 

“To be held in such high esteem by our peers is just fantastic,” says our co-founder and Sales Director Jay. “Winning the award again is incredible and this feeling never gets any less special.”

And of course, we couldn't have done it without all those votes. “We’d like to thank all the suppliers who voted for Total Merchandise – their support means a huge amount,” says Michelle, co-founder and Head of Finance. “We’d also like to extend our congratulations to all the other winners and runners-up.”
