"The T-shirts were great. Every one that we have given out the people have loved. They really get your business out there. They see the shirt and they say they are from Giddings."

Does Your Business Need Promotional Products? Buy American Made from LogoNation

LogoNation is a great American success story. The company was founded by Jennifer and Denny Watson back in August of 1998 with just a small, tabletop pad printer and a dream.

The Watsons started by printing promotional items like pens, key chains and coffee mugs, but soon wanted to start screen printing t-shirts, sweatshirts and caps.

After taking a few classes in screen-printing, the Watsons sketched an idea on a blank t-shirt. This idea would morph into the company’s signature product, and would launch LogoNation into the stratosphere.

The idea that the Watsons created was called the CommuniTee. The CommuniTee is an annual community promotional t-shirt that’s designed around the one aspect that makes each community unique. For example, the small Ohio town of Cadiz is the birthplace of Hollywood legend, Clark Gable. And the town of Rayne, Louisiana is known as being the frog capital of the world.

Armed with this ingenious idea, the Watsons set out to see if it would sell, and boy, did it.

The first community they approached was Natches, Mississippi where they sold over $1000 worth of shirts on the first day. The response continued to grow, and Jennifer and Denny soon realized that they were going to need a bigger place.

They moved their headquarters from Hillsborough, NC to a bigger facility located in Mooresville, NC. Since the move, they have added on an additional 5000 square feet to accommodate graphic design services, customer service and training facilities.

Today, LogoNation is one of America’s largest screen-printers and is set to print around 500,000 shirts for over 1000 communities this year.

While other companies are outsourcing their work to places like China, LogoNation keeps everything here in America.

Although their CommuniTees are a big success, they still produce other items like can coolers, pens, key chains, etc.
