Subcontract & Contract Embroidery for the Trade
Need embroidery capacity you can actually rely on? We run trade-only subcontract embroidery for uniform suppliers, printers, garment decorators and clothing brands – your garments or ours, your spec, your deadline, back to you under your name. No missed dates, no excuses.
Extra embroidery capacity without the hassle
Whether you've taken on more than your machines can handle, you don't have embroidery in-house, or your current subcontractor keeps missing dates, we give you production you can rely on. We've provided subcontract embroidery to the trade for over a decade, and our production team brings more than 30 years of combined embroidery experience.

Frequently asked questions
What is subcontract embroidery?
You win the order, we do the embroidery. You send the job, we stitch, check and pack it, and return it ready for your customer. It's also called contract, commission or trade embroidery. Same service.
What's your minimum order?
There's no fixed minimum. We're set up for volume and repeat work – send your quantities and spec and we'll confirm cost.
Do you only work with businesses in the North West?
No. We work with trade customers across the UK. Being based in Lancashire just makes drop-off and collection easier if you're nearby.
Can you supply the blank garments as well?
Yes. Send us your own garments, or we can source the blanks for you.
What thread do you use?
Premium Madeira viscose thread as standard.
How do I get a price?
Call, WhatsApp or email us with the garment type, quantity, logo size or stitch count and number of positions, and we'll come back to you with a price quickly.
