OUR BEGINNINGS
Perkal was started by Eli PERpinyal and Philip KALinko by chance. There was a family friend whose husband was an importer of goods. He had a large stock holding and when he suddenly passed away, his wife was left with all this stock. Not knowing how to sell this stock, she asked for assistance. Eli and Philip decided to try and help move the stock and so with no experience at all, they went to companies, door to door with samples. After many slammed doors, they managed to sell the stock and create relationships with their client. They then decided to continue sourcing products to sell to their newly found customers. Their vision became ensuring that they could provide any Promotional Product that could be dreamed of, of top quality at the lowest prices in the country.
"We saw that there was a huge gap in the South African Corporate Gift market – After conducting some market research we saw how these large suppliers with huge overheads were putting around 100% markup on their goods. We visualized cutting out the middle-man, whilst keeping costs down, without sacrificing customer service. With this vision in mind PerKal was formed.”
Our website is effectively an online catalogue, with over 75000 products it is impossible to capture our entire range in a single printed catalogue. Although we do release printed catalogues for a approximately 5000 of our products every year, we encourage our customers to utilize our website to be able to see all the products offered. We have made many improvements to the website to allow customers to find what they are looking for quickly. Our advanced search tool allows customers to put in restrictions (Price, exclude words, category) to allow you to sift through all our products quickly and efficiently. A user can search based on many different criteria including budget, product color, product material, industry, recipients personality, season, occasion etc. Results can be sorted by product name, price, date added or popularity making the time spend searching for products greatly reduced. As always if you are struggling with the site or struggling to find what you need, you can always just call our sales department who will gladly assist with ideas within your budget.
