Affy Tapple Inflatable Mascot Helps with Event Marketing Success

Take a Bite out of Affy Tapple

In 1948, Affy Tapple, in the big city of Chicago, created the very first caramel apple in the United States.

For the next 60 years, it has continued to grow by offering a fun and delicious way to raise funds for charities, schools and more. So, when Affy Tapple decided to branch out with its promotional and event marketing efforts, it needed a bit of expert help. Enter Landmark Creations.

With the development of an inflatable mascot, Landmark gave Affy Tapple a way to promote its factory store as well as stand out at event marketing promotions and more.

What results does the company hope to get with their inflatable mascot - Affy Man? According to company representatives, “Increased sales, improved foot traffic at events and storefronts, more recognition, positive comments and press coverage.” Lofty goals for a nylon balloon… but we think he’s up to the task.
