Monday's Philadelphia Inquirer featured a story about the growth of hand sanitizers in our industry - educating end-buyers about the value of providing useful advertising specialties to their clients and prospects.

The story centers on how hand sanitizers now rival pens as one of the most popular logoed items. As we reported last week, searches of the key words "hand sanitizers" by promotional products distributors via ESP Online jumped 439% for the period between October 2009 and October 2008. 

Only searches for pens - which for years have been the best-selling logoed product in the promotional products industry - were higher that period.  In addition, searches for sanitizer products of all kinds jumped by triple digits this year.
