HayMad & Co., a small Winnipeg business, sets up a booth in the gifting suite at the venue where the Emmy Awards will be hosted.and Amber Nemeth was minding her own business — literally, her business is called HayMad & Co. — when she found something in her spam folder.“The company that does all the gifting suites for award shows like this reached out to us via email wanting our Be Kind products and originally just in the gift bags for the nominees and presenters,” she said.
When she learned the invite was real, Nemeth said her team jumped on the opportunity, eventually being offered a spot in the gifting suite.“It was wild, you know. What of our Be Kind product did they want? It was our black Be Kind hoodie, and then they also wanted our corduroy tote bag in there as well,” she said.Kate Flannery, known for her role as “Meredith Palmer” in The Office US, stops by HayMad & Co.’s booth on Sept. 13, 2024, two days before the Emmy Awards.
Nemeth said she also had to make sure she had enough stock leftover for when she got back home, especially if any of the products went viral.Now Nemeth is in L.A., preparing her booth at the Emmys’ venue.“I’m super pumped for Jeremy Allen White is coming. The Bear is probably my favorite show.
Nemeth said she’s only seen one other company not from L.A. itself, and is honoured to represent her hometown. “We would not be here without the support from back home and in Winnipeg and in Canada too,” she said.Viewed
