Viva Las Vegas!
Facilisgroup just returned from the 2025 PPAI Expo, showcasing their innovative technology on the trade show floor and celebrating the previous year’s successes from their community members. From charity walks to shopping sprees and the fun in between, here’s what went down during the PPAI Expo according to Facilisgroup.
Facilisgroup kicked off their week at the PPAI Expo with their Facilis Cares initiative; during every Facilisgroup event, the company gives back to the local organizations or causes that matter to their Distributor Partner community. For our Facilis Cares initiative at PPAI, the company partnered with You Name It Specialties to launch Gabriel’s Journey, raising awareness and support for individuals living with spinal muscular atrophy (SMA).
The one-mile walk began near the Shark Reef Aquarium near the South Convention Center in Mandalay Bay and spanned the entire length of the building. It was all smiles from attendees as they walked the floor with their purple rally towels in hand with information about SMA.
The program was named after the son of You Name It Specialties’ COO, Jenna Martinez, who lives with SMA. All of the donations raised for Gabriel’s Journey will go directly to Cure SMA. The family wanted to give back to Cure SMA since the organization has done so much for Gabriel and other children living with SMA.
As another way to give back to the local Vegas community, Facilisgroup’s emPOWER Committee handed out “One to Wear, One to Share” bracelets during registration. All donations will go towards Las Vegas Leading Ladies, a nonprofit dedicated to uplifting and assisting women facing tough obstacles including unemployment, education roadblocks, and more.
After the one-mile charity walk, Facilisgroup headed to The Forum Shops at Caesars Palace to play personal shopping assistant for the three lucky winners of SanMar’s $10,000 shopping spree. Winners Lauren Ritt of BRANDITO, Ammon McBride of Brand Makers, and Jack Wheeler of KB Graphics were greeted with a black carpet and champagne glasses as they prepared for an afternoon of shopping. From Louis Viton to Tiffany & Co., our shoppers walked away with an enviable haul.
On to the main event: the 16th Annual TASA Ceremony! Every year, the Facilisgroup Community comes together to celebrate and highlight the achievements of our Distributor Partners, Preferred Suppliers, and the more than 350 sales reps who reached Achiever status, or have over a million dollars in sales. Here are this year's TASA winners:
Once the TASA Ceremony concluded, everyone let their hair down and partied all night long at our homecoming-themed afterparty. Trust us, this was one homecoming dance you didn’t want to miss.
If we haven’t said enough, thank you to everyone who came out and celebrated with us during the PPAI Expo. Nothing warms our hearts more than spending time with our community and creating memories that’ll last a lifetime. We can’t wait to reconnect with our community later this year for our Supplier Showcase in New Orleans.
