About Our President
Fran Kelly leads Beach Ink Promotions with over 20 years of experience in custom apparel and promotional products and a lifetime connection to the industry. Growing up in a family business, he was introduced early on to the world of custom apparel and promotional products through his parents’ company, which has been operating for over 40 years and is now run by his brother. Today, they continue to collaborate, combining experience, production strength, and flexibility to deliver better solutions for their clients.
Based in the Hampton Roads area, Fran takes pride in working with local businesses, organizations, and events, building long term relationships rooted in trust and reliability. He brings a hands on approach to every project, helping clients navigate product choices, timelines, and execution to ensure everything runs smoothly.
Outside of work, Fran is a husband and father of two and stays actively involved in the local community, something that continues to shape his commitment to supporting the people and businesses he works with every day.
“This business is built on what I learned from my parents. Watching them grow their company showed me the value of hard work, strong relationships, and doing things the right way.
Those same principles guide how we serve our clients today, with attention to detail, clear communication, and a commitment to making every project count.”
