Our Story

The idea of Berman Specialties was planted in Andrew’s mind in 2001. He was a sophomore in a Connecticut high school and was the president of Junior Achievement’ Entrepreneurship class.
September 11th had happened and the class decided to make shirts and donate the profits to the FDNY. He enjoyed learning about the screen printing, interaction with multiple parties and being able to give so much that it stuck with him.

While attending college, he worked with a local screen printer and would travel the country to various music, sports events, conferences and festivals selling merchandise and other souvenirs.
It’s now twenty years later since he was in that high school class, and Andrew has continued to further his experience, knowledge, contacts and and love for this business.
Of course over the years between school and working for others, both his exposure and experiences have grown but Andrew has always kept an interest and desire to stay in the promo merch and advertising specialty industry.

Andrew credits his interest in learning new things, love for meeting new people, and desire to help others as major contributors to his zest for this industry.
He’s most proud of being able to deliver top-notch products and services through his developed contacts and friends over the years.
