Pricing

Do you do bulk pricing for larger orders? (retail customer).

Each product page has bulk pricing rates listed.

 

These bulks rates apply to a single style and can be split over multiple sizes and colours.

 

If you are looking to have product branded we recommend speaking to your local printer/embroider, merchandise, uniform or promotional supplier to arrange fulfilment and decoration.

 

If you need a recommendation, you can find a company to assist on our Printers / Embroiders page.

 

What if I don't qualify for wholesale pricing?

Depending on your intention with the garments, you have two options:

 

  1. 1. For garments intended for remain blank, you can order using the bulk rates on each product page.
  2. 2. For garments intended to be decorated, talk to your local decorator or touch base with our Recommended Printers / Embroiders page and they can take care of the fulfilment and decoration. Typically, this a more cost-effective solution for MOST customers.
