It all began in 1977 with Ginny Durfee and Sarah Foehl’s vision to improve upon the standard golf awards that their husbands were winning. They established a home office with one phone line, a typewriter, a small engraving machine, and a client list of 30, and sold their first set of awards to a local golf club.

The company’s mission was to provide quality of product, exceptional customer service, building a company foundation that has kept long, standing, and loyal customers happy for many years. 

In the 1980’s as customer requests increased and product lines were expanded Prize Possessions moved to a facility in Needham MA. In 1983 Prize Possessions attended its first PGA Merchandise Show and business took off. This rapid growth created the need for a larger facility and the company was moved to Norwood MA.

In 1997 Prize Possessions celebrated their milestone 20th Anniversary; with a customer base of over 5000, typewriters gave way to computers, a 20-page catalogue with over 650 items was printed and a new website was launched. The continuing expansion included development of a client base beyond golf to include Scholastic, Equestrian, Motor Sports, Yachting/Sailing, Dog Shows, Corporate and Racquets Sports Industries.

In 2000 Kevin and Jim Lynch took over as proud owners of Prize Possessions. Keeping with the foundation of 24 years of successful business practices, the company expanded again and relocated to its current location at 340R Vanderbilt Ave in Norwood MA.

In 2003 the company expanded its engraving capabilities to include Laser Engraving and a full line Air Brush Color Fill Department that adds an extra dimension to its product offerings.

In 2007 the company expanded its State-of-the-Art Glass Etching Facility to include two CRYSTALBLAST Sand Carving machines along with an Industrial Washout Station and an extensive Conveyer Drying System for our mask making material.

In 2020 the company introduced PrizeColor to its personalization capabilities. Purchasing two high volume Inkjet Printers allowing customers to have their awards, recognition items and gifs personalized in color adding and extra dimension and creating exceptional awards for its clients.

Although many changes have taken place since that first order in 1977 the foundation that started Prize Possessions is still in place today; quality products, exceptional service and exceeding our customer’s expectations.
