P&P LIVE! 2022 Review
We had another great show this year, a good calibre of visitor and a good number of machine orders. We’ve already had a chat with Tony to reserve our stand for next year!

One of the most colourful shows at Birmingham’s NEC was back with a spring in its step after its two-year hibernation. New customers came to walk the red carpet and see our new hoodies and T shirts, and other products

Wilcom Europe was looking forward to Printwear & Promotion LIVE! It’s been the highlight of the year to date.
The Wilcom stand was full of activity, and the team was excited to catch-up with many familiar faces and get to know lots of new customers. With six live product demonstration hubs, the activity was pumping.

A PASSION FOR EMBROIDERY As a fi rst-time exhibitor to the exhibition, the team at Holiauma did not really know quite what to expect. Rather than put their own words to paper, the team asked one of their visitors to outline their experience. Here’s what Peter Snape, the director of Can Wear, had to say: “While at show in Birmingham I visited the Holiauma stand as I have previously imported a machine direct from the Chinese factory in 2020 and wanted to say hello. As soon as I started to chat to Scott from Holiauma I instantly felt his passion not only for the brand but embroidery as a whole. We chatted and I got a lot of tips and advice that were so helpful to someone relatively new to the embroidery scene. While browsing the other stands I got a call from one of my team back in Northern Ireland who were having some issues with the machine so I decided to head back to the Holiauma stand to see if they could share some light on the issue. Well, was I in for a shock! Not only did they solve the issue but the help and support I got was second to none and was overwhelmed on the knowledge and assistance I received from Scott and Martin. I will have no hesitation when it comes to getting a new machine as to which brand and who I will be buying it from. It will 100% be from Scott and the team at Holiauma UK.”

The embroidery experts on hand were your local Wilcom team, assisted by local Wilcom educators and staff from France, Germany, and Australia, who all jumped at the opportunity to visit.
The team noticed many new entrants with start-up businesses keen to enter the embroidery industry and learn more about the advantages of EmbroideryStudio software, EmbroideryConnect, and the new affordable WilcomWorkspace on-demand applications. A signifi cant shift was customers wanting to take back control of their embroidery with the ability to edit designs in-house. And fi nally, there was some genuine interest in Wilcom’s Embroidery Web API product which offers process automation opportunities for embroidery and apparel companies with an e-commerce website. The pandemic and the two-year break have driven a new and exciting focus. New business ideas, higher automation requirements, and the desire not to rely solely on overseas production.
The Wilcom team look forward to a fun year ahead and hope to see everyone again in 2023!
