Premier Catalog Group, a networking group of suppliers and distributors, has announced the addition of two new distributor members, Grand Forks, North Dakota-based Probitas Promotions (PPAI 652294) and Southfield, Michigan-based Lasting Impressions.
Probitas Promotions has offices in Grand Forks, Minot, Bismarck and Fargo. Founded three years ago, its sales have grown to more than $2,500,000. The company, along with fellow Grand Forks distributor Daydreams Specialties, recently acquired Grand Forks-based distributor Trojan Promotions (PPAI 133787) following the unexpecting passing of the company’s owners, Jessica and Troy Nelson, who were killed in an accident in San Diego, California, in January. Probitas Promotions and Daydreams Specialties will continue to operate individually while integrating the Trojan employees and clients into their businesses.
Lasting Impressions is celebrating its 43rd anniversary this year. It is a second generation, family-owned business with annual sales over $6 million last year. Vice President of Sales Carla Dabiero Ejaz says, “What began as a casual conversation at a recent trade show led to more discussions and we realized our needs and values aligned with Premier Group’s, and all of us are thrilled to immerse ourselves in the group and get to know all of the members.”
