Fully Promoted®, a leading full-service promotional products franchise, has reported notable growth in the first half of 2024. The company opened eight new locations across the U.S., including markets in Scottsdale, Ariz.; Cincinnati, Ohio; Wyckoff, N.J.; Calabasas, Calif.; Lawrence, Kan.; and three locations in Florida—Winter Park, Palmetto Bay, and Pembroke Pines. With 12 more locations in the pipeline for 2024, the brand is accelerating its domestic expansion.
The company also signed 15 franchise agreements in the first six months of the year, translating into 12 new units to be opened soon. This expansion underscores Fully Promoted's enduring presence in both the promotional products and franchising industries.
Andrew Titus, President of Fully Promoted, attributed the growth to strategic initiatives aimed at improving operational efficiencies and enhancing customer experience. Titus stated, "We are thrilled to see that those initiatives are translating to wins across the board."
Fully Promoted's success is reflected in the performance of its high-performing locations, with several achieving their best year ever. In particular, locations in Ohio saw a 25.8% increase in sales year-to-date, while Minnesota locations experienced a 46.6% sales increase.
Ray Titus, CEO of United Franchise Group™ (UFG), commended the Fully Promoted team for their innovation and dedication. "The Fully Promoted team and franchise owners are among the most talented and dedicated I've seen, and that's what makes this brand so great," he said.
