About Kathie Rowe
Owner & Founder, Big Star Branding
For nearly 40 years, Big Star Branding has been more than a business to me — it has been my passion, my creative outlet, and one of the greatest blessings of my life.
Since founding the company, I have never stopped learning.
The branding and promotional products industry is constantly evolving, and I love discovering new ideas, products, technologies, and ways to help our clients elevate their brands. What started as a dream has grown into a company that serves government agencies, corporations, educational institutions, and organizations throughout Texas and across the nation.

One of the most important decisions I made was joining the largest buying group in our industry.
That partnership allows Big Star Branding to compete on a national level while maintaining the personalized service and relationships that have always been at the heart of our company.
Today, we offer access to more than one million custom-decorated and imprinted products, supported by exceptional in-house services including screen printing, embroidery, graphic design, and branding solutions.
I am especially proud of the talented team we have built.
As a leader, my goal has always been to inspire excellence, encourage creativity, and create opportunities for others to succeed. I thank God every day for the opportunity to lead this incredible team and serve our clients with integrity and purpose.
In 2012, my son, Michael Rowe, joined the company.
His manufacturing degree, coding expertise, and strong leadership skills have helped transform our business and position us for the future. His innovative thinking has allowed us to stay ahead of industry changes and continue growing in ways I never imagined. Working alongside him has been one of the greatest joys of my career.
I am also deeply grateful to the people of San Antonio and the cities, counties, and organizations throughout Texas that have supported Big Star Branding over the years.
As I look ahead, I remain as excited about this industry as I was when I started.
I believe branding has the power to create connection, build culture, and inspire pride. I am thankful for the journey, grateful for every client who has trusted us, and excited for what the future holds for Big Star Branding.
