What Pinnacle Promotions does

Pinnacle Promotions, Inc. is a privately held B2B promotional products distributor headquartered in Norcross, Georgia. Founded in 1994, the company sells custom branded merchandise across categories including apparel, bags, drinkware, office products, technology, outdoor/sporting goods, and corporate gifts, with a curated portfolio of licensed brands such as Nike, Carhartt, Stanley, CamelBak, and Solo Stove. Its technology stack centers on a B2B e-commerce platform with integrated quote tools, product search, artwork proofing, and order management, supplemented by a network of online company stores (My Promo Solutions) that let enterprise clients manage ongoing branded merchandise programs with budget controls and approval workflows.

The business model is a hybrid of self-service e-commerce and sales-assisted quoting (phone sales at 877-300-2007), with tiered volume-based unit pricing and value-added services such as free 24-hour rush production, price matching, drop shipping, in-house printing and signage (Pinnacle Print Shop), and a satisfaction guarantee (Pinnacle Platinum Guarantee). The customer base spans named enterprise accounts including Monday.com, Milwaukee Tool, Swagelok, Lineage, Gas South, and Long & Foster, with go-to-market segmentation across verticals such as Education, Healthcare, Technology, Automotive, Construction & Manufacturing, Professional Services, Banking & Finance, and Non-Profits. Distribution is direct to U.S. business customers only.

Leadership comprises Founder and Chairman Mitch Weintraub and President Steve Jennings, who was appointed in 2023 to mark a new era of leadership. Recent strategic activity includes the 2023 CALIBER acquisition, the 2024 launches of Pinnacle Print Shop and the Holiday Hub, and a website relaunch. The company has accumulated industry recognition including multiple PPAI Gold and Silver awards, PPAI Code of Conduct certification, and authorized-supplier status with The Coca-Cola Company. Revenue is not publicly disclosed.
