Spanish term
Confección (de regalos promocionales)
Spanish to English
Marketing
Advertising / Public Relations
Company Website
This is from the website of a company that designs, manufactures and promotes stands for trade fairs.
I'm struggling to find a punchy way of rendering "confección de" here — "production of" and "preparation of" just seem flat to me.
Any ideas?
CONTEXT:
"Promoción comercial
Para garantizar el éxito de su stand, nos implicamos en la promoción y difusión de la feria o evento. Asimismo, nos ocupamos de preparar todo el material promocional (invitaciones, catálogos, flyers, etc.) necesario para atraer la mayor cantidad de clientes potenciales a su stand.
Promoción previa y durante el evento:
* Asesoramiento del canal de promoción (telemarketing, mailing, etc.)
* Preparación y revisión de bases de datos
* Actividad de promoción (contacto telefónico, envío de newsletters, etc.)
Elaboración del material para el evento:
* Asesoramiento con respecto al material publicitario
* Diseño gráfico (fichas de producto, flyers, displays, etc.)
* Confección de regalos promocionales"
Many thanks in advance.

Una posibilidad. Me parece poco probable que los regalitos se "confeccionen" por la misma empresa.

made to order
as in corporate or promotional gifts made to order, might work. I assume that is what is meant here.
