ProGifts ® Inc. was first established in November, 1999, by Melinda Farrell. The company immediately began a trend of rapid growth and moved into a larger warehouse/office space in May, 2000. Though ProGifts' main focus was promotional products and business gifts, they created a website to sell leather desk sets and accessories in January, 2001. As ProGifts grew, it bought a franchise from Adventures in Advertising to accommodate even greater growth and subsequently acquired two competing companies - TWT Advertising and US/Promo. We currently manufacture in China, India, and Taiwan. ProGifts has always been very active in the community and is involved in numerous charitable organizations, such as the American Cancer Society, the Boys & Girls club, Tools for Schools, and much more.
In September, 2003, the Gainesville Area Chamber of Commerce recognized ProGifts as the Business of the Year, and we have also received a variety of industry awards, such as the Mastermind Award for self-promotion and an Addy Award for combined media marketing campaign. More than anything else, ProGifts prides itself on superior customer service and commitment to client satisfaction. We would rather build a relationship with a client and work with them event after event, year after year, than have a million one-time sales.
Today, ProGifts remains Gainesville premier Promotional Products distributor with active clients throughout the nation. In October 2009, ProGifts retained Howard Libin,to become the company's General Managing Partner. Howard has over twenty years of promotional products experience and share the company's commitment to customer satisfaction..
