Awards

ASI Promotional Products Awards

Our awards honor the people and companies in the promotional products industry that are raising the bar through innovation, leadership and achievement.

Counselor Awards

The editorial department generally begins to call for Counselor Awards nominations in February. An in-house committee determines the winners in each category. These exclusive accolades are typically awarded annually at the ASI Chicago show in July and published in the Counselor State of the Industry issue. Nominations are requested from the industry for the following categories.

Counselor Top 40

In addition to the Counselor Awards, the Top 40 suppliers and distributors in the industry based on North American promotional product sales are recognized at the Counselor Awards ceremony typically held at the ASI Show Chicago in July and published in the Counselor State of the Industry issue. This list is determined through an online survey that’s sent out beginning in January to ASI listed suppliers and distributors. Note: All sales figures must be shown in U.S. dollars and must be certified by CEO, CFO, owner or auditor. Click here to see the rules to qualify for Top 40.
