The innovative erasable ink and charming characters. The global demand for Legami Erasable Pens has been unprecedented and it’s been amazing to watch the trend amongst kids to collect them all. It’s generated a significant hype in the UK market.

What made you enter the Stationery Awards?

To celebrate the latest Legami launches which are both innovative and truly deserving of recognition. We think they stand out in the market for their unique design and functionality.

Focus on creating a unique brand story. Your products should be high-quality, innovative and tell a compelling story that resonates with the judges and potential customers.

What is your goal for the year ahead?

To continue the fantastic growth that we have seen with the brand so far and for our customers to discover the entire universe that Legami has to offer. The possibilities are endless and we are excited to see where the brand will take us…
