Promotional products in Calgary
The pen someone borrows from your booth and forgets to give back. That's the whole idea. We help you pick giveaways people actually keep.
Quick answer
SURE Print Foothills supplies branded promotional products in Calgary, including pens and stationery, mugs and drinkware, koozies, jerseys, keychains and magnets. We help you choose items, set up your logo so it prints cleanly, and send a proof before production. Our full catalogue of promo items is at www.surepromo.ca.
Promo items have a simple job. They put your name somewhere a customer will see it again next week, and the week after. A good mug sits on a desk in a Beltline office for years. A cheap pen that skips gets tossed by Friday. Choosing the right item matters more than ordering the most of them.
We've been printing for Calgary businesses since 1985, and promo products grew out of that work. Clients kept asking for something to hand out at the trade show to go with the banner we'd just printed. So now we do both. Tell us the event, the crowd and roughly how many people you expect, and we'll suggest a few items that fit. You can browse the full catalogue at www.surepromo.ca, or just call and talk it through.
Your logo is already on file with us if we've printed your cards or signs. That saves a step, and it means the colours on your giveaways match everything else you hand out.

Why SURE
Why Calgary businesses bring this work to us
Advice before you order
We ask who's getting the item and why. A golf tournament and a home show need different things, and we'd rather steer you right than sell you 500 of the wrong thing.
Your logo set up properly
Small imprint areas are unforgiving. Our designers clean up your artwork so thin lines and tiny text don't fill in on a pen barrel or a keychain.
A proof every time
You see exactly how your logo sits on the product before anything is produced. Nothing goes ahead until you approve it.
Print and promo under one roof
Banners, table signs, business cards, shirts and giveaways for the same event, all from one shop and one contact in southeast Calgary.
How to pick a promo item that gets kept
Start with the person receiving it, not the product. Contractors at a trade show want something they'll use on site or in the truck. Office staff will keep a decent pen or a good mug. Families at a community event grab anything the kids like, which is why magnets and keychains disappear so fast.
Then think about how long you want it around. A notepad gets used up. A stainless tumbler can last the better part of a decade. If the goal is a long reminder of your business, spend a little more per piece and order fewer.
Last, leave yourself some time. Promo items often ship from suppliers before they're decorated, so the earlier you call, the more choice you have. Most deadlines can be met within reason, and we'll tell you up front if a particular item won't make your date.

FAQ
Promotional Products questions
How much do promotional products cost?
It depends on the item, how many you order, how many colours are in your logo and how it's applied. Per-piece pricing usually drops as quantity goes up. Tell us the product and quantity you have in mind, and we'll email you a detailed quote.
Is there a minimum order for promotional products?
Minimums vary by product and decoration method. Some items make sense in small runs and others don't. Ask about the specific item and we'll tell you what the minimum is before you commit.
Where can I see all the promotional products you offer?
Our full catalogue is at www.surepromo.ca. It covers far more than we can list here. If you find something you like, send us the item and we'll quote it with your logo.
Can you put my logo on promo items if I don't have a print-ready file?
Yes. Send us what you have, even a photo or an old business card. Our designers can rebuild or simplify the logo so it reproduces cleanly at small sizes, and you'll approve a proof first.
Do you ship promotional products outside Calgary?
Yes. We ship to major cities across Canada and to the USA, which helps if your event or your staff are out of town. Pickup at our shop at 3660 60 Ave SE is also an option.
