Building a Company Store
Once reordering apparel more than once or twice a year becomes a pattern, a company store removes the manual work of coordinating every small order yourself.
Short answer: a company store set up through shop.eastcoastembroidery.com lets your team order pre-approved, pre-branded apparel directly, with your logo already on file so every order — no matter how small — skips the setup fee.
How a Company Store Works
- 1. You approve a catalog once. Choose the garments, colors, and styles staff can order — as narrow or broad as you want.
- 2. Your logo is digitized and put on file. One-time setup; every order placed through the store afterward skips the digitizing fee entirely.
- 3. Staff order directly. New hires, replacement gear, and seasonal needs go through the store without you touching a spreadsheet or re-approving artwork each time.
- 4. We produce and fulfill each order. Standard turnaround is two weeks or less, the same as any other order.
Who a Company Store Makes Sense For
- Multi-location businesses that need consistent branding across sites without a central person managing every order.
- Growing teams with steady hiring — new hires order their own gear without waiting for the next bulk order.
- Organizations with seasonal staffing swings — see our seasonal apparel planning guide.
- Anyone tired of re-collecting sizes and coordinating a spreadsheet for what should be a five-minute reorder.
If you're only ordering once a year or less, a standard bulk order is usually simpler — a company store earns its setup once reordering becomes a recurring pattern.

Reach out with your catalog needs and team size and we'll walk you through setup — the core savings comes from every order after your first skipping the digitizing fee since your logo stays on file.
