ASP PROMOTIONS
ABOUT US
The time seemed right to take the ‘plunge’, and so the journey began! Back in 2005, full of excitement and determination ASP Promotions Limited was formed. Three like-minded business partners with vast experience in the promotions industry; Adrian, Sally and Parm (ASP) decided after many years of working for various companies within the industry it was time to go it alone. After several meetings in St Pauls finest bars (Birmingham) we produced the name ASP Promotions; pure genius!
We have experience not only selling business to business but also a vast knowledge of manufacture, import and branding. After 5 years Sally left the company to become a full time Mum, leaving the “A” and “P” of ASP Promotions to continue our journey alone.
We started trading in January 2005 and have continued to go from strength to strength following client recommendations, repeat business and attracting new business from local and nationwide exhibitions.
ASP Promotions continues to grow by working closely with clients on a one-to-one basis, ensuring we have a full understanding of our customers’ requirements and branding. This is supported by our competitive pricing and excellent customer service giving you the peace of mind that ASP Promotions will always deliver a quality product, with excellent branding, on time and at the right price!

PARM
Parm enjoys every aspect of her job. When presented with an enquiry, she likes to explore all possibilities. Parm loves a challenge, and her customers know this too and this is where Parm is at her best. Her knowledge of the industry backed up with her Marketing degree means Parm not only knows what products to propose but she can also explain the exposure this will have which gives the customer great insight and confidence in what has been proposed.
One of Parm’s achievements is the ASP Annual Incentive show. Organising and making the show an ongoing success is all down to the commitment Parm offers. It takes months of planning and runs smoothly on the day. When Parm has an idea, she is referred to as the whirlwind … she is full of ambition and deals with all her customers as friends, so they are relaxed and find Parm approachable. Parm is very proud of her impressive client base which is growing from strength to strength through customer recommendations.
Adrian
After working for several years as an account manager for one of the largest distributors of promotional merchandise industry Adrian jumped at the chance to work with Parm and Sally. A few meetings and a business plan later ASP Promotions Limited was born.
Adrian’s experience and knowledge of the promotional industry and printing techniques gives clients absolute confidence when placing an order with ASP Promotions that they will receive a quality product, branded correctly, within the requested delivery date at a competitive price. Adrian’s business and client base builds by word of mouth recommendations, repeat business and his desire to always meet our clients requirements.
Adrian introduced our first web shop and continues to run a client web shop for one of the largest building material suppliers in the UK, servicing over 600 branches UK wide.
Our Story
Over the Years
2005
Founded
ASP was born. What seemed like an innocent conversation soon turned into reality and we took the leap. Adrian, Sally and Parm (ASP) decided to come together and form a company. Young and fresh faced meant we could face anything, so off we went on our adventure. Setting up in Parm’s house we went about establishing ASP Promotions.
2009
First ever Annual Incentive Show.
ASP launched their first ever Annual Incentive Show. An exhibition of merchandise displayed by over 25 key suppliers. An opportunity to see new items along with best selling products. We pulled out all the stops and lay the red carpet for the customer … it was a long but successful day.
2010
The ‘S’ of ‘ASP’ moves on.
The ‘S’ from ASP decided to focus on her family so we said our farewells to Sally. She will always be the honorary ‘S’ of ASP. Having been established for five years we decided to keep the name and soldier on.
2012
Moving offices
ASP was growing and decided to invest in an office in Dickens Heath. Based on the ‘posh end’ of Waterside we overlooked a lovely water feature and were frequently visited by the ducks. Owning an office meant employing staff, so we welcomed 5 bright eyed and bushy tailed humans to try and grow the ASP Empire.
2015
ASP’s 10 year anniversary
Celebrated ASP’s 10 year anniversary. What a proud moment. We started with very little other than hope and made the ten year milestone. As a gesture we took a selection of key suppliers out in London for a meal and drinks. The night ended with dancing on Tower Bridge … and plenty of shots.
2018
ASP joins successful buying group
With the continued growth ASP decided to join the Page Partnership. This allowed ASP to be more competitive and part of a successful buying group.
2018/9
Recognised by the BPMA
ASP were recognised by the BPMA (British Promotional Merchandise Association) and won the accredited award for Distributor of the Year for the two years consecutively. A very proud moment for Adrian and Parm.
2020
The pandemic hits
We were all hit by a worldwide pandemic so we all took a break as instructed by the Government.
