Mark Katz

Custom Ink (asi/173232) – Chairman & CEO

2022 Rank: #39

Industry Experience: 23 Years

Previous Appearances on Power 50: 5

Marc Katz zips up nine spots on this year’s list, thanks to strong influence scores among his Power 50 peers and the industry at large. When it comes to e-commerce-enabled apparel decoration, Custom Ink is a name the average tee shopper knows, and the brand’s acquisitions of Swag.com and Printfection in the last few years have boosted its presence in the promo world. As Katz himself noted, pairing Custom Ink’s robust platform and scale with the two acquisitions has helped his company assemble “a pretty incredible combination of talent, technology and capabilities to meet the end-to-end swag needs of companies and organizations.” Under Katz’s leadership, Custom Ink continues to garner accolades and recognition, including a Top 10 spot this year on Fortune’s Best Workplaces in Retail.
