Sustainable promotional products offer opportunities to link brands to eco-consciousness. You’re aligning your brand with consumer concerns. Sustainable gifts generate significant brand impressions and give consumers something they want but are not always willing to pay for: green solutions to daily problems.
McKinsey reports 66 percent of consumers consider sustainability when choosing products. Among millennials, the number rises to 75 percent. Below are six popular choices for sustainable promotional gifts, all reinforcing your brand’s commitment to the planet.
