PLEASANTON, Calif., Jan. 17, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- GSO, the leading regional carrier for Parcel and LTL delivery throughout California, Nevada, Arizona, and New Mexico, announced that it will once again participate as an exhibitor at the Imprinted Sportswear Show on January 20-22, 2017 at the Long Beach Convention Center.

The company believes that having a presence at this show is an opportunity to meet with a variety of apparel and promotional advertising professionals who need a next-day Ground Parcel and LTL solution without paying a premium price for overnight service across a large footprint.  "With the increasing demand to get products into the hands of imprinters and customers more quickly,  GSO enables shippers to accelerate production and delivery with its overnight delivery model and offers many advantages over the worldwide carriers," said Mark Corley, VP of Sales and Marketing. "In an industry where many businesses are shipping low weight items in larger boxes, we are able to provide relief from the ever-changing dimensional weight policies and increasing fees that the national carriers have implemented."
