Printing Logos on Anything
and Everything for More Than
Three Decades
You’ve probably seen their handiwork. Maybe it was on one of the countless logo- bearing pop-up tents at a Gulf Coast festival or on a stadium chair at a music event or football game. Perhaps it was on the ball caps adorning many a sporting head or it might have even been handed to you as a refrigerator magnet, toothbrush, or water bottle.

Yep, you’ve probably seen what the locally, family-owned business behind all of those promotional logos can accomplish with screen printing and embroidery techniques that also feature custom designs.
“Absolutely anything with the surface area can be printed on,” said Johnny Blue, one of the founders of Coastal Prints in Gulfport. He and his brother Kleo Blue co-own the business, bringing more than three decades of print and sales experience to the screen printing and embroidery shop on Seaway Road.
“I promise you, anything that you can think of to put your logo on, we can make it happen,” Johnny Blue said, noting logos fit so much more than just T-shirts. The full-service advertising specialists have an array of promotional products that help marketing campaigns stand out and make a one-of-a-kind statement. All items are cost-effective and only limited by the customer’s imagination.
