JDS Industries carries thousands of awards, gifts, drinkware, signage, and personalization products—use Product Filters to import the lines that match your store.


About the JDS Catalog in SupplyMaster

The SupplyMaster JDS feed includes 3,200+ products across a wide range of product lines—not just trophies. JDS is a major supplier for awards and recognition, but the catalog also includes drinkware, clocks, keychains, plaques, medals, signage supplies, heat-press equipment, and many gift and personalization items.

Products are organized into readable categories so you can filter by what you sell, rather than scrolling through the entire feed. Browse Catalog and Products for Import both respect your active Product Filters.


How JDS Products Are Categorized

JDS data includes several category layers. The most useful for filtering are:

Default Filter on New Connections

New JDS Industries connections start with one pre-filled Product Filter so you are not overwhelmed on day one:

  • AI⁺ Base Category — Equal To Any — Trophies

That default shows roughly 450–500 products—a slice of the full catalog, not all of JDS. If you sell other lines, edit or remove this filter and click Apply Filters. See How to Filter Products for Import for the general filter UI.

JDS default Product Filter: AI⁺ Base Category Equal To Any Trophies


Filter Recipes by Store Type

Start with one broad filter, preview the product count, then add rows to narrow further. All examples use Product Filters unless noted.

Laser engraving & personalization

Laser-engravable and personalization items are spread across many base categories—not limited to trophies. Combine category filters with title keywords:

  • Title — Contains Any — laser, engrav, personalize

  • Or pair with gift lines: AI⁺ Base Category — Equal To Any — Drinkware, Mugs, Tumblers, Keychains, Clocks, Picture Frames, Flasks, Coasters, Artwork

Hundreds of products mention laser or engraving in the title. If you need both awards and engravable gifts, use two filter rows joined with and, or run separate imports with different filter sets.
