At Wild Thang, our senior team places huge importance on our industry networks and building real partnerships based on trust for the long term. It’s not just for our team’s visibility and product learning, but for creating much more meaningful opportunities and connections person to person to create an expert peer network between great organisations to help us deliver our mission “To deliver one world-class solution that elevates creative branded clothing, merchandise and print through more sustainable practices and ethical production”.
PSI Dusseldorf Events like these are about far more than attendance; they are a deliberate investment in team building, branded product knowledge, partnership development, innovative product ideas, trends, and industry statistics. It’s all about the continuous improvement mindset as we never stop learning, so we can share with our amazing local and global clients. Merchandise World is a fixed date in the Wild Thang calendar for exactly that reason. It brings our team together, from Directors to other members across the team, creating space away from the day-to-day to focus on product innovation, learning and collaboration. The insight gathered is then shared across the wider business and its departments, strengthening a truly collaborative environment that supports teamwork, confidence, and collective growth.
Merchandise World 26We were also proud to once again be recognised in the prestigious Sourcing City | Promotional Office Software Top Distributors of the Year list. That’s The Wild Thang Way! January saw WT travel across the UK and Europe, from Merchandise World in Coventry to PSI in Germany, and on to the BPMA Annual Awards. Across every event, the focus remained the same: learning from the best, strengthening partnerships, sourcing innovative products, and ensuring our team continues to grow alongside a rapidly evolving industry. All to enable us to deliver a truly world-class experience that includes creative, innovative ideas for our valued clients, so we can be that all-important trusted branding partner.
BPMA Annual Awards 2026 Merchandise World 2026 was a powerful reminder of why this event matters so much to us. From branded apparel, uniforms and sustainable merchandise to Lower-Eco Impact new materials, processes and suppliers, it provided hands-on product learning and valuable conversations that directly support how we deliver one world-class solution for our clients. On an international scale, PSI reinforced the strength and warmth of our global industry. Connecting with peers from Europe, the US and beyond, it was clear that, despite its size, this remains a personal, collaborative, values and ethically-led community that is focused on being a force for good for both people and planet with purpose.
PSI Dusseldorf Team PictureThe BPMA Awards rounded off the journey perfectly, celebrating rising standards across the industry, a huge credit to our partners, the Sourcing City team and the BPMA for their leadership and commitment to positive change. We have seen firsthand, having been members since 2002, how they have raised standards significantly across the industry, recognising company excellence and leadership, all while promoting innovation and positive ESG change. It is a powerful reminder of the values that sit at the heart of our sector. As a Certified B Corp and as we celebrate our 30th anniversary year, our commitment remains unwavering: to invest in our people, build strong partnerships, champion sustainability and keep raising the social impact bar, together.
Whether you are upstream or downstream, aligning with our values and ethics helps protect our client's reputation and mitigates their own supply chain risk. Here’s to another year of innovation, collaboration, and purpose-led progress while making a genuine, measurable ESG difference in the wider world and community to create a better and brighter future for everyone, which is The Wild Thang Way’.
