Going green never looked so good.

Military Green is hot, hot, hot.  So many of our apparel suppliers are featuring this color in their spring and summer collections.  All fabrications, and styles, so many to choose from.  Military Green -- it's not just for camo anymore!

Making our Hearts Sing

ETS Drinkware-Set.jpg

There is no mistaking our immense love for good drinkware. But what we love even more than good drinkware, is good drinkware with great decoration! This standout selection is not only on trend but they also offer impressive decoration options. From large imprint areas to new "mirror print" techniques, it all makes our hearts pitter patter.

Grapevine gets schooled. Say What?

It's a good thing! Ever wonder how we always have the latest and greatest trend and industry information? We research (a lot!) and make time to network with A-list supplier partners in our industry. We sent our team to Phoenix to attend an exclusive event to further develop relationships and align ourselves with the industry's best. We attended private meetings to do a deep dive, where we discussed what is new and different in this ever changing industry. And we took some time to do some casual networking too! Building strategic long term partnerships is key in delivering top notch customer care for our client base.

Heather and Kris take a scenic hike through the desert. Our guides were amazing to share anecdotes, and observations of the area. How do desert vegetation and animals survive in that arid land? Heather, we definitely were not in Kansas anymore!

That's a Wrap, Texas

We love what we do and it's our joy to provide nothing but the best for our clients. Come rain or shine or freezing cold winds we are ready to take our client's Gift Shops mobile and that's exactly what we did for Bell Helicopter. This past weekend we set up shop at the Bell Helicopter Fort Worth Alliance Air Show and had a blast promoting their brand.

The Alliance Airshow set up was even better than I had envisioned; you really created a special experience for our customers who came by and it was reflected in our sales numbers! You ladies have such an eye for selecting things people have to have and arranging them in such a way that draws you into the store. Thanks for all your hard work – you’ve really raised the bar for our stores and all credit goes to GVD! Also grateful for your cheerful, can-do attitude…even on bone-chilling, windy days! You and your team are a delight to work with.

Grapevine gets personal at NBAA

Wrapping up 2017 NBAA where Textron Aviation distributed personalized headwear to top customers at this year's event. For three days, grapevine talent was onsite to personalize branded headwear for the Citation Longitude aircraft. Not something customers could get anywhere else! What a great way to extend the customer experience, and promote the upcoming Citation Longitude 46-city demonstration tour across the U.S.
Congrats Textron Aviation!

Personalization forms were filled out and the caps were then embroidered there onsite.

Rethink Recognition

Yeti Stand.jpg

These gems found their way into our office and we are quite smitten with them. Looking for an award that does more than collect dust? Everybody loves the YETI brand, why not give them what they already love, only with special recognition for a job well done? It's a gift people will use over and over and over. It's simple, clean, sophisticated and super practical. Available in a few different sizes and color options. We heart it!

Successful Summit in KC

Once a year we converge with our affiliate companies of A Brand Company to share experiences, hear from industry leaders, meet with our elite partners to see what's new and trending, celebrate successes and overall to have a darn good time. This year we had the distinct honor to host our peers in our beloved Kansas City, to show them why "there's no place like home."  Indeed.  Cheers.

Trends for 2017

What's Trending?

It’s the question you ask us most often. And it’s a question we love answering. Because not only do we have the answer − we’re just as excited about it as you are.

It doesn’t happen by accident. With lots of research and attention to detail we are always seeking what’s trending now and what’s around the corner. We consistently work with our partners in the industry to use similar forecasts the big retailers use and continue to design products that reflect the trends you’ll be seeing in stores, on the street and shopping online.

And in 2017, this is what everyone will be looking for.
