New Wave Group AB Annual report 2017 EN | Page 18

CORPORATE PROMO OUR OFFER Corporate Promo’s subdivisions – promowear, promotional gifts and workwear – consist of products that cover all price levels and qualities. Promowear and promotional gifts have similar appli- cation areas (to promote and market brands) and are marketed by the same type of retailers. Workwear is primarily used when functional, durable work clothes are needed in many professions. NET SALES SEK million 3000 2500 Within the promowear division, New Wave Group offers clothes adapted for printing and embroidery which, in addition to price and quality, also cover all application areas and sizes – from favou- rably priced basic garments to detailed garments made of exclusive textiles, leisure, work and sports clothes, clothes in classic and trend colours, in sizes from XS to 6XL. New Wave Group’s promowear brands are divided into different concepts that include brands such as Clique, James Harvest Sportswear, Cottover and D.A.D Sportswear. 2000 The promotional gift concept is broad and the subdivision covers a multitude of products and price classes. New Wave Group can through its concept, which includes such brands as d-vice, Queen Anne and Toppoint, offer everything from pens, USB flash drives and digital picture frames to handbags, bed linens and towels. Since many companies are giving seasonal gifts, especially at Christmas, the fourth quarter is a key sales period for promo- tional gifts and business gifts. 0 The final piece of the Corporate Promo puzzle is workwear. In Sweden, there is a vast need for and expertise in personal protection and the issue is intensely promoted by trade unions and employers. This means that Swedish professional clothing brands have a high reputation in Europe and the rest of the world. Belonging to a company or profession and being identified by the same has become an important way of communicating through professional clothes. New Wave Group can through its two brands, Jobman and ProJob, offer work clothes for such profes- sional categories as construction and installation workers, painters and plasterers, transport and service workers, as well as hotel and restaurant workers. The collection is all-inclusive, ranging from underwear to outer garments for all seasons and weather condi- tions, reflective clothing, shoes, carrying systems and accessories. All garments and products are ergonomic and durable and come in sizes for both women and men. 18 | NWG 2017 1500 1000 500 2017 2016 2017 2016 EBITDA SEK million 300 250 200 150 100 50 0
