Here's what customers are saying about GIANTmicrobes
"At the American Red Cross we are always looking for new ways to engage youth. Through our Pint Size Hero program we are able to teach the importance of blood donations and getting families involved in a blood drive. By partnering with GIANTmicrobes it allowed us to provide a prize for students as well as a great way to teach them about blood cells. GIANTmicrobes worked with us to customize a product specific to the Red Cross. They truly exceeded our expectations! "
Erica N., Marketing Program Manager, American Red Cross Blood Services"GIANTmicrobes were a huge hit with our fans and customers of all ages. They are well-made with excellent customization. Everyone loved our plush bacteria because it was cute, cuddly and educational. It was the best possible option for our giveaway contests and events because -- let's face it--it's impossible to make a bacteria appealing any other way! GIANTmicrobes rock!"
Rhonda P., Garden of Life, Palm Beach, FL"Your Gigantic blue Amoeba has a special place in our heart as our company Mascot. We purchase the GIANTmicrobes as premium give-aways at our tradeshows, and they always create a level of excitement at our booth. Thanks for producing an affordable, quality give-away that both delights and educates."
Andrea M., Strategic Marketing Manager, LuminUltra Technologies Ltd., NB, Canada"The GIANTmicrobes team has been very easy to work with. The staff pays attention to detail to make sure the end result is exactly what we want on every order. They even helped us create a custom dye color and tags for our stuffed insects to make them a unique promotional item for our company."
