PALMER, Mass. — November 1, 2016 — Brian Kwiatkowski, owner of Eastern Advertising Novelty Powered by Proforma in Palmer, Mass., has announced the acquisition of DeRoy Advertising Specialties in Monson, Mass. Financial terms of the agreement will not be disclosed.
“I’m very excited to introduce this client base to Proforma and provide them a wider product range of printing, promotional products, graphic solutions and digital marketing resources including website development, online marketing and mobile apps,” says Kwiatkowski. “We strive to provide our clients with one source to an infinite number of resources that streamline business.”
Joe DeRoy, a former marketing account executive with Halo Branded Solutions, will remain on board to ensure a smooth transition over the next six to 12 months. He will then transition into retirement.
“After working with Brian and getting to know him extensively, I knew this transition was the best option for me and my customers,” notes DeRoy. “Brian is an expert at what he does and has a proven track record of creating customized marketing solutions that deliver impressive ROI for his clients.”
This is the second acquisition Kwiatkowski has completed over the past two years, with the help of Proforma’s Mergers and Acquisition Team.
