How did your company get its start?
The
company got started in the workwear world. In
a business that does not have much difference
in the look of the garments between brands,
we wanted to establish an inherent value that
was a true difference. For us, that became our
association with the Teflon Fabric Protector.
That got people at Sears excited, and since then we have been
making Craftsman workwear for Sears—about 10 years now.
What led your company to enter the promotional products
market?
High visibility has become a widely accepted safety
product, cutting across many industries and markets, from
school bus companies to event security, public works depart-
ments, construction, police and fire, etc. Most folks like to have
their company name or slogan imprinted on the garments, so it
seemed natural to pursue the promotional markets where so
many decorators operate and gain further acceptance and mar-
ket share for our brand: Utility Pro.
What's your favorite thing about being in the promotional
products industry?
We like the vast variety of customers and
potential customers and their ability to bring our products to peo-
ple and parts of the country we may not have much visibility in.
These businesses are part of their local communities and have a
strong connection to their customers, which then extends to us.
Why did you join PPAI?
To be associated with the acknowl-
edged voice of the promotional products industry, to stay abreast
of industry issues and to gain greater awareness and acceptance
of our brand: Utility Pro High Visibility.
