Clipper Interall continues its journey as part of Favorite Gifts
Favorite Gifts buys the wholesale division of Plato Group.
Helmond/Tiel, [4 November 2025] – Clipper Interall, the wholesale division of Plato Group, will become part of Favorite Gifts. This marks the creation of a strong alliance between two from origin Dutch family-owned companies, both holding leading positions in the European promotional products market. By joining forces, the companies will be able to strengthen their position in the European market and further enhance customer service.
Clipper Interall develops, personalises, and supplies promotional products to distributors across Europe. Favorite Gifts, the parent company of several brands including Giving Europe, facilitates high stocks, efficient logistics, and operates modern production facilities. This strategic move creates a robust and future-proof organisation, with greater scope for innovation, growth, and continued progress in sustainability. The Clipper Interall brand will remain, continuing to deliver the same high level of service and customer focus through its existing commercial team.
Going forward, Plato Group will fully focus on its distribution brands, IGO Promo and Compacon. With targeted investments and a simplified structure, IGO Promo and Compacon will be even better equipped to maximise their commercial potential and continue their growth in Europe.
Rob Looye, CEO of Plato Group: "As part of Favorite Gifts, Clipper Interall will have the opportunity to grow further within a strong and entrepreneurial family business. At the same time, we are strengthening the position and focus of our distribution brands, IGO Promo and Compacon. This enables us to increase our impact in a market that demands ever greater speed, scale, and sustainability."
Arno van Helden, CEO of Favorite Gifts: "Clipper Interall brings a good branded portfolio and expertise in sustainability. Combined with our scale and technology, this creates a partnership that can innovate faster, produce smarter, and serve customers even better. We look forward to building the future together."
The transition from Clipper Interall to Favorite Gifts is planned on January 1, 2026.
