We are a full service Promotional Advertising Company providing custom imprinted merchandise of all kinds.
How did you first become interested in your line of business? (if owner) - What is your background? (If owner or store manager)
I have been in the advertising field for 37 years and started my career in Promotional Advertising in 1989. I did not know much about it at the time but the company was then owned by a friend of mine who was looking to expand.
