Recently, European PEZ collectors
were thrilled with the release of the
new red-white-red
"I Love Austria"
PEZ mascot.
Today, we’re introducing another
dispenser from the "I Love Austria"
edition, but we’re torn between excitement
and a touch of sadness.
To explain, let’s take a brief detour.
ADVANTAGE AUSTRIA
is part of the Austrian Chamber of Commerce,
operating over 100 offices in
more than 70 countries.
They provide a wide range of intelligence and
business development services to Austrian
companies and their international partners.
After years of preparation, PEZ officially entered
the Chinese market in 2019, a key region
for the brand’s growth.
You may recall the grand opening of the
PEZ shop in Shanghai
So, how does PEZ connect with
Advantage Austria and China?
It’s simple.
From October 24-26, 2024,
Advantage Austria Hong Kong is hosting
the Austria China Connect Conference,
the largest gathering for the Austrian
business community in China,
held in Hong Kong.
PEZ is proudly supporting this event alongside
other Austrian companies as an event partner.

And, as a special gesture,
PEZ has created something unique:
the red-white-red PEZ mascot,
now featuring the Advantage Austria logo
on the stem, is included as a special
gift in the event's goody bags.

Now, for the part that brings us a bit of sadness,
only a few hundred of these dispensers
were produced exclusively for this event.
This means it will likely be challenging
(if not impossible) for collectors to get their hands on one.
But never say never! :)
We wish all attendees of the Austria
China Connect event a successful
and memorable experience!
And who knows, perhaps there
will be a couple of extra goody bags
for a giveaway on the blog.
What do you think, Advantage Austria HK? ;)
Hört ihr uns Advantage Austria :)
Happy Collecting!
