Yupo received the 2019 award for its branded 2020 desk calendar. Gordon Kay, editor and publisher of GDUSA, said roughly 10,000 entries were submitted, yet after a highly selective process, less than 10% were recognized as award winners. Given annually to clients, vendors, suppliers and friends as a holiday gift, Yupo’s calendar is known for its use of striking illustrations and eye-popping photography enhanced by textured applications, finishes and print processes.
