St. Louis-based Facilisgroup (PPAI 493664) – a company that provides a software-as-a-service-based (SaaS) platform for promotional products distributors – has announced that Los Angeles-based PromoShop (PPAI 204997, D11) is its newest distributor partner.


The partnership centers on Syncore – Facilisgroup's cloud-based software solution – which was adopted by PromoShop to elevate its operational efficiency and seize new opportunities for growth, according to the company.

“Facilisgroup provided the front-end and sales tools our previous technology lacked,” says Memo Kahan, president of PromoShop. “Syncore, our unanimous choice after exploring three options, has all the bells and whistles to understand our business, foster growth within existing accounts and drive profitable expansion. The key features of creative marketing and sales reporting made Syncore the favorite solution for our entire team.”

“Facilisgroup is an established company with a vision for future sustainable growth,” Kahan adds. “Over the last 18 months, we've been impressed and overwhelmed by the service and attention we've received and continue to get. It really starts with the people.”

Reputable Business

Founded in 1998, PromoShop earned $68.2 million in revenue in 2022.

The High Mark that the certified minority-owned distributor earned for Industry Faith in the inaugural PPAI 100 technically refers to PromoShop’s positive credit rating, but the company has built a strong reputation among its industry competitors and peers.

  • Just last year, the company’s former chief compliance officer and director of vendor relations, Kim Bakalyar, received PPAI’s 2022 Woman of Achievement Award, before retiring.


PromoShop also earned a place in PPAI’s Greatest Promo Companies To Work For in 2023, and maintains a standard of pre-qualifying the suppliers it works with for safety, compliance and socially responsible products.
