If you have the ec fonts installed, you can try to use
\textperthousand (marked as TeX).

Otherwise, here is a definition I found in a LaTeX FAQ:

\newcommand{\promille}{%
  \relax\ifmmode\promillezeichen
        \else\leavevmode\(\mathsurround=0pt\promillezeichen\)\fi}
\newcommand{\promillezeichen}{%
  \kern-.05em%
  \raise.5ex\hbox{\the\scriptfont0 0}%
  \kern-.15em/\kern-.15em%
  \lower.25ex\hbox{\the\scriptfont0 00}}

Just add that in your preamble, and use \promille in the text.
