Who are NEMOA's members?
NEMOA's member companies come from all across the US, Canada, and Europe; they are catalogers, retailers, e-marketers, suppliers, and more.
What are NEMOA's primary activities?
NEMOA is the founder of the only national summit dedicated to catalogers & etailers.
NEMOA is a non-profit 501(c)(6) trade organization.
NEMOA was founded in 1947 as the New England Mail Order Association. Today, NEMOA (National Etailing & Marketing Organization of America) is one of the nation's most active multichannel merchant associations with a strong emphasis on the catalog/multichannel industry and direct-to-consumer marketing.
Our mission is to educate, connect, and inspire multi-channel direct marketers so they can evolve their marketing strategies, overcome challenges, and grow their businesses. We achieve this through an annual educational summit and memberships, providing access to content, an industry job board, and discounted summit registrations.
NEMOA member companies come from all across the US, Canada, and Europe - you don't need to be from New England to become a member. And you don't need to be a member to attend a NEMOA event.
History of NEMOA
NEMOA was founded in 1947 by a handful of pioneering New England mail order companies - Johnny Appleseed's, Brecks of Boston, Brookstone, and Deerskin Trading among them - as a professional group for discussions, community building, and information exchange. Over the past 75+ years, NEMOA has not only grown beyond New England, but its membership has also become more diversified, including printers, list brokers, service bureaus, and other suppliers to direct marketers. Yet its focus remains on catalog and direct e-tail companies, large and small. Today, with over 200 corporate members from across the country, NEMOA is one of the nation's largest professional organizations dedicated exclusively to the catalog/e-tail industry.
