In a momentous leap forward, Wild Thang proudly announces the opening of its newest office in New Jersey, strategically positioned next to the bustling city of New York. This significant expansion marks a pivotal moment in our company's journey, underlining our commitment to growth and international presence.

The establishment of our New Jersey office is not just big news for us, it's spectacular news! This move enables us to tap into new markets, strengthen existing relationships and position ourselves at the heart of one of the world's most vibrant international business landscapes.

Choosing New Jersey as our newest location comes with numerous advantages. From its proximity to New York offering unparalleled business opportunities, it is a key distribution gateway for the whole of North America which will allow us to enhance our services, collaborate with local talents and foster relationships with clients and suppliers in the USA.

Entrance To The Chicago ASI Event

This has been in the planning for well over a year, with our first steps being taken by joining ASI - Advertising Specialty Institute who have been invaluable in helping us understand the North American Market, established with a wealth of resources this aligns us with the foremost institute supporting many industry professionals and promoting the highest standards, ethics and values between members, with a membership of over 25,000 it is recognised as the foremost organisation by industry professionals across the USA.

We then went on to utilise important partnerships and relationships at home to help with our international expansion aspiration with our friends at BITA who started the whole ball rolling by connecting us with a fantastic New Jersey Company, Cove, they have been invaluable in helping us navigate the process of legally forming the U.S. company, setting up bank accounts and giving us expert legal advice which has been critical in our journey so we are ready to now officially trade stateside. In December our Directors Andrew, John and Sarah made the trip over to New Jersey to meet them in person to strengthen our partnership, discussing our next step plans and aspirations for the year ahead. We want to personally thank Michael Gattoni of Cove for hosting our visiting team at their offices, but also for the very kind hospitality by providing us with the all-American taste experience of Dunkin Donuts and a Box O’ Joe coffee treat!

To gain insights into the American market, Wild Thang Directors Sarah and John Howarth, who have been the individuals managing the complex North American expansion project have already attended the prestigious ‘ASI Expo 2023’ held in the convention centre in Chicago. This invaluable experience allowed us to understand the branding clothing, merchandise and print market in North America which is also fondly known in the U.S as branded swag, develop our supply chain further, meet industry leaders from ASI, and tailor our approach to best serve the unique needs of our American clients.
