Last month, Fully Promoted of Southern NH, a franchisee of PPAI 100’s No. 26 distributor Fully Promoted (PPAI 240143, Gold), hosted its first-ever client appreciation event. Through the end of October, the company continues celebrating the local business community with special savings for new customers.

• The client appreciation event welcomed more than 200 attendees, including local business leaders, chamber members and customers, who met vendors and saw the latest trends in branded apparel and promotional products.
• The distributor, who’s been in business for more than 20 years, was recently awarded “Best of the Best for Promotional Product Services” by the Greater Merrimack-Souhegan Valley Chamber of Commerce for the seventh consecutive year, as well as “Best of the 603” by Manchester Radio Group for Printing & Promotion. FPSNH is also a two-time recipient (in 2023 and 2024) of United Franchise Group’s “Customer & Community Service Award.”

Owner and New Hampshire local Sal Calautti says, “This event was about giving back to the people and businesses that support us all year long. We’re a community-driven company, and this was a chance to celebrate that. Coming off the great success of this event, we’re motivated to continue our mission of helping NH businesses and organizations grow, and October’s Customer Service Week was the perfect opportunity to kick off even more.”
