Go Promo opens Jamestown sales office, expands North Dakota presence

Go Promo has opened a sales office in Jamestown, giving the promotional products and branded apparel company a new local base in Stutsman County and a stronger presence in eastern North Dakota.

The move matters beyond a ribbon-cutting. Go Promo, which says it was founded in 2012, already listed offices in West Fargo, Bismarck and now Jamestown, placing another business operation in a city that sits at the center of Interstate 94 and U.S. Highway 281. For Jamestown, a regional office like this can mean easier access for schools, nonprofits, employers and civic groups that need custom apparel, screen-printed gear, embroidered uniforms, corporate gifts or branded web stores without depending entirely on remote ordering.

Go Promo describes itself as a full-service promotional products, branded apparel and solutions company serving North Dakota and the Upper Midwest. Its Jamestown Chamber listing says the company also offers warehousing and fulfillment, graphic design and custom company web stores, services that can pull in steady work from organizations that want one local contact for branding and supply needs. That kind of business is a small but useful signal in a city where a new commercial presence can affect how often people stop downtown, meet with vendors and keep spending tied to the local economy.

The company’s expansion also adds context to its growth in North Dakota. A January 2024 Jamestown Sun item said Go Promo had offices in West Fargo and Bismarck at that time, worked with more than 800 businesses and schools statewide and was doing nearly $5 million in annual sales. Founded by Casey and Tom Glandt, the company has moved from a two-office North Dakota operation to three offices, with Jamestown now joining the network.

Jamestown’s appeal is easy to see for a regional sales business. The U.S. Census Bureau estimated the city’s population at 15,789 on July 1, 2024, large enough to support local business activity but small enough that outside companies still have room to stand out when they choose to invest. The city’s location between Bismarck and Fargo has long made it a practical stop for companies that want to cover a wide stretch of eastern North Dakota without leaving the region.

Local economic-development groups have built their pitch around that same idea. The Jamestown/Stutsman Development Corporation says it works to strengthen the local economy by creating quality primary sector jobs and supporting business growth, retention and expansion. The Jamestown Area Chamber of Commerce says its mission is to support, connect and advocate for member business and organization growth. Go Promo’s new office fits that framework and gives Jamestown one more sign that outside companies still see the city as a workable place to grow.
