LogoMotions Acquires Great Ideas

The AIA-affiliated distributorship said the Santa Fe, NM-based acquisition boasts an impressive office and showroom.

Snoqualmie, WA-based LogoMotions, a longtime member of Top 40 distributor AIA Corporation (asi/109480), has acquired Great Ideas, a promotional products distributor located in Santa Fe, NM. Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed.

LogoMotions owners John King and Justin Warren said they’re excited about the acquisition, and pointed out that Great Ideas has “created an impressive office/showroom that includes a heat press for specialized and timely decoration runs, as well as storage and fulfillment capabilities.” The acquisition will also bring additional back-office support to the distributorship.

LogoMotions doesn’t plan to make any big changes at Great Ideas, noting that it will be “business as usual” for both companies. The only small change, the distributor said, would be the addition of the Great Ideas logo on invoices, as a division of LogoMotions.

In 2024, LogoMotions said it plans to continue to grow and update its online company store services, which have been a strength for the distributor.

LogoMotions has been a member of the AIA family for 25 years, and in 2019, King was a recipient of AIA’s David Woods Lifetime Achievement award. Warren, a veteran industry sales exec who previously served as vice president of business development at Top 40 distributor Touchstone (asi/345631), joined LogoMotions as a partner in 2021.

In addition to the Great Ideas office in Santa Fe, LogoMotions also has offices in Seattle, Boise, ID; Phoenix, AZ; and Appleton, WI.

With 2022 North American promotional product sales of $154.9 million, AIA ranked 19th on Counselor’s most recent list of the largest distributors in the industry and was recently named to Counselor’s 2024 Best Places to Work list.
