NSS 2019 Best New Product Awards

Judging for the Best New Product Awards at The National Stationery Show® (NSS)  were announced at the event Sunday, February 3.  Industry judges were Sarah Schwartz, editor-in-chief, Stationery Trends; Nole Garey, blogger, Oh So Beautiful Paper; Kathy Krassner, co-editor, PRESENT Magazine; and Tory Johnson, contributor, Good Morning America.   

“The Best New Product Competition and Awards has been, and continues to be, a key aspect of the National Stationery Show,” commented Aaron Hazard, Sales Director for the Show. “The NSS buyers have come to rely on the BNP display as a resource to help them plan their Show. Before the buyers even step foot on the show floor they are able to see that latest and greatest that the NSS exhibitors have to offer.”

Products new to the show since the 2018 National Stationery Show, or after June 1, 2018 were eligible for the competition, and exhibitor submissions were limited to one product per category. Here are the 2019 categories and winners.
