about us

The Operations Director of Ash Promotions, Ashleigh Roche, is no stranger to the world of marketing. Ashleigh with her many years being the lead of the Creative Counsel in Kwazulu-Natal whilst starting and leading the ‘National Promotions Department’ of Flash, now Pepkor. This as well as starting Ash Promotions on her own and leading Ash Promotions to its current market-leading position, reflects a sound understanding of the marketing industry.
Ash Promotions strives to produce exceptional quality campaigns, in both the formal and informal market, for brands nationally and internationally where market research and brand awareness are the core focus in making your brand a household name.
"Ash Promotions really is one of the best Promotions and Events Agencies out there. My journey with them started in 2020 whilst struggling to find work after The Pandemic like most of the people, but they took me in and really helped me get back on my feet. I was able to provide for my mother and siblings and that allowed me to hold my head high and for that I’m eternally grateful.
As a company most of their campaigns and activations are fun and interactive, which makes our jobs much easier because people’s curiosity ends up driving them to the stand. What I really love about them is that they always have a variety of campaign’s running, they have competitive rates and always pay on time. Highly recommend them for anyone looking to do promotional work.
Big thanks to Ash, Bianca and Micaela for always making me feel like i belong, like I’m part of the family."
