Jett Branding

What Jett Branding does

Jett Branding (legal entity Jett Exhibits and Displays, LLC) is a privately held, bootstrapped U.S. company founded in 2020 by Jamie Gierach, who brought 20 years of trade show industry experience. The company operates from a Portland, Oregon headquarters (15220 NW Laidlaw RD Suite 220) and maintains a second production facility in Chicago, selling portable trade show exhibits, custom apparel, and promotional products primarily to B2B marketing teams and trade show exhibitors. The product portfolio spans 15+ categories, including retractable banner stands, fabric structures, backlit LED displays, table top displays, fabric towers, stretch fabric pop-ups, hanging signs, kiosks, counters, outdoor flags and canopies, custom apparel (via Company Casuals integration), and swag (via PromoPlace storefront).

The underlying technology is large-format printing and fabrication of portable display hardware, paired with an in-house graphic design team that bills $85/hour for artwork preparation, layout, typesetting, photo editing, and vector element creation, with rush services at $65/hour. Jett does not own the underlying hardware manufacturing IP; instead, it sources finished and modular displays from partner vendors including Exhibitbook, Navigator, The Exhibitor's Handbook, and Panoramic, and bundles them with custom graphic services and direct fulfillment. Distribution is multi-channel: a self-serve e-commerce site (jettbranding.com), direct consultative sales with named account representatives (notably Jamie Gierach), and resale integrations on Company Casuals (apparel) and PromoPlace (swag). Same-day shipping on hardware orders placed by 11:00 am PT and Prime-style free ground shipping on select lines signal a fast-turn, event-driven fulfillment model.

The business model is transactionally revenue-led with three streams: one-time sale or rental of trade show displays and exhibits; one-time sale of branded apparel and promotional products; and professional services revenue from graphic design. Pricing is publicly listed on hardware, with design services billed hourly and quantity discounts available on inquiry. Jett Branding does not charge Oregon sales tax. The customer base is a horizontal mix of SMB and enterprise buyers across Aerospace (Ace Aero), Technology (FLIR), Cybersecurity (Acalvio at Black Hat Las Vegas), Insurance (Priority Insurance), Real Estate (Luxe Christie), Construction (Her Roofing), and others, with no disclosed concentration. The company has no outside funding, no parent or subsidiaries, and operates as a 1-10 employee bootstrapped LLC with founder concentration of ownership.
