Burlap Sacks R’ Us

In 1886, an intelligent chap named Jasper Freemont Meek noticed that some schoolboys were having a hard time carrying their books home from school.  This observation prompted a simple thought, “Perhaps they could use a bag to carry their books.”
From that simple observation, an industry was born.  Mr. Meeks was looking for a way to keep his printing presses busy; a local merchant named L.L. Cantwell wanted to sell more shoes; school boys needed book bags.  It was called advertising.
Today, bags are still an excellent way to promote your business. Bags are useful to anyone and everyone. There is a bag available for just about any application, be it grocery shopping or carrying delicate technology. But the best thing about bags is that they are one of the most visible of promotional products. Bags travel throughout a community (even the world), carrying not just their contents, but YOUR message wherever they go.
