Events

At NNEP, we love everything we do. However, a certain elevated degree of excitement always surrounds our industry and embroidery trade shows and conferences, where you get to interact and connect in person – with other apparel decorators, embroidery business owners, and with industry suppliers. BUT... Thanks to the Pandemic, none of that is possible for NNEP any longer :^(

NNEP's Embroidery Mart trade shows are no longer happening.

Contact NNEP at Mart@nnep.com or give us a call at 330-678-4887 if you have questions about the NNEP trade shows.

Here is a quote from an attendee of Jennifer’s class at an Embroidery Mart in Nashville: Dear Jennifer: I just want to drop you a line thanking you for all of your hard work and efforts going into the NNEP show in Nashville last weekend. I enjoyed the classes they were spot on for what is needed to succeed in today’s competitive market. When I was at your Saturday class, you changed my way of thinking. Although I have a multihead shop with a 6 head and single head, I am always thinking that I am too small to go after the big fish. When you mentioned how you got started with the GM account, it clicked. Now I am thinking why not. What an epiphany– it was one of those light bulb moments. Thank you for helping me break through the wall of small time thinking… I really enjoyed your class. Thanks again, Susan Frost CQA, CQE Owner, BBG LLC
