FRANCHISES

One brand,
fifty locations,
one look.

Multi-location operators have it the hardest: every location needs the same uniforms, the same logo execution, the same color match: but the orders trickle in from individual store managers, district VPs, and corporate at the same time. We've built a workflow around that fragmented reality. Lock the artwork, set the standard, and we deliver to whichever location asks.

WHAT WE SOLVE

The brand-consistency problems no spreadsheet fixes.

Franchise operators ship us their brand book and ask us to be the firewall. Here's what we actually do with it.

01

Brand color that doesn't drift over time

We register your PMS values when we set up the program and they don't change. Year-three reorders match year-one's polo color. New franchisees ordering from us get the same exact uniform as the original locations.

02

Reorders that don't restart the project

Approved artwork is on file. New location opens? They reorder the same SKUs, sizes, and decoration spec: we ship without re-proofing or re-quoting. Single email reorders are normal at scale.

03

Decentralized purchasing without losing control

If individual store managers can order directly, we set up an approved-product list with locked pricing. Manager orders within the spec → ships. Manager wants something off-spec → routes to corporate for approval. Either way, no rogue uniform shows up in a customer's Yelp photo.

04

Predictable per-piece pricing for budgeting

Programs that order every quarter get a contracted rate that holds for 12 months. Your budget owner can model uniform spend without surprises; new locations come online at the same per-piece cost as existing ones.

METHODS THAT FIT

What we usually run for franchises.

Embroidery is the workhorse of franchise programs, premium feel, durable, scales cleanly. Screen printing comes in for promotional or event apparel.

Embroidery

The standard for polos, button-downs, jackets, and hats. Premium feel, holds up to industrial wash, locked color match for brand consistency. Min 6 pieces, 12+ gets the best tier.

Screen printing

For promotional tees, event apparel, opening-day giveaways. More economical above 72 pieces; less premium-feel than embroidery for daily uniforms.

Learn more →

Heat transfers

For employee name patches that change frequently. Each transfer is per-piece custom, no setup fee per name. Pairs with embroidered base uniforms.

Learn more →

Patches

Sewn-on or velcro-backed patches for service technician uniforms. Holds up to industrial laundry better than direct embroidery for some fabric types.

Common franchise products

Polos (most popular), button-down work shirts, embroidered hats, performance polos for outdoor or active roles, fleece quarter-zips, lightweight jackets, name-patched scrubs, kitchen-staff hats, branded aprons.

FAQS

What franchise operators ask first.

Can we set up an approved-product catalog so individual store managers order directly?

Yes: for ongoing programs we set up a "locked spec" where corporate approves the products + decoration once, then store managers can order replenishment without going back through corporate every time. Custom requests still route to your contact at corporate for approval.

How do you handle name patches for high-turnover positions?

Heat transfers per-piece. Each shirt gets its name applied individually, no setup fee per name and no minimum on the number of unique names. New hire this week, named uniform out in days, fill-ins run between bulk orders.

Can you ship to multiple locations from one order?

Yes. Submit one consolidated order with per-location ship-tos and we'll split it at packing. Charged once, shipped to many.

What if our brand colors aren't standard PMS?

Most brand books include either PMS or hex values that map cleanly to thread or ink colors. If you have a Pantone TPX (textile) reference, even better. Worst case we pull physical samples for your approval before production.

Can we get contracted rates that hold across the year?

Yes: for programs ordering quarterly or more often, we'll lock pricing for 12 months. New locations get the same per-piece rate as existing ones. Tell us your annual volume estimate when you reach out.

Do you handle compliance / brand-book sign-off?

Every first run gets a digital proof + physical strike-off (sample) for your brand team to sign off on. After approval, that sign-off becomes the spec we re-run forever. You're not approving every reorder. You approved it once.

Talk to us about your uniform program.

For multi-location programs, custom request is the right path. We'll set up a brand-book intake call and design a workflow that fits how your locations order.
