Events, Education and Trade Shows

Supporting you on your journey

the giftware association

We have been supporting the home and gift industry for over 70 years

Over this time we have created courses both in person and online to help you, your business and its staff to achieve greatness and success.

Our events and courses have concentrated on the things that matter most to your business.

"For anyone working within the Gifts industry, it is a must that you connect with this association and make the most of its support and activities. The team is warm and friendly and genuinely cares about all their members and creating successful businesses for everyone involved. Their first 'Women in Gifts' event was a triumph"
