GelatoConnect City Tour 2026

The opportunity

Hundreds of new orders are being routed to local producers every day. Is your facility in the network?

Gelato connects creators, ecommerce sellers, and global brands to local production partners across 32 countries. Over 200 producers are already in the network. The average print run has dropped from 3,000 units to fewer than 30 over the last decade, while order volumes have soared. That demand is being routed to producers who are set up to receive it.

Henrik will show you exactly how the network works, what it takes to be part of it, and what it has meant commercially for the producers already inside it.

  • 25% — Increased production capacity on average
  • 20% — Reduction in raw material costs
  • 40% — Lower shipping costs

What this means for your business

Growth without adding headcount. Margin you didn't have to sell for.

The producers connected to this network are accessing customers they never had to pitch. They are growing without new hires, without new machines, and without a new sales team.

Connor Pera at The Print Authority has built what he calls a 5 to 10 year head start over competitors his size, with approximately 10% lower shipping costs and the infrastructure to scale without constraints. David Bennett at Bennett Graphics cut production waste from 41% to 10%, delivering $125,000 to $135,000 in annual savings on a single product line. Overall efficiency up 20-25%.

These are not projections. These are current customers who will be in the room.
