The Company started out from humble beginnings 25 years ago supplying custom embroidery and screen-printing on uniforms and jackets. Today we have expanded our market into Saskatchewan, Alberta, as well as the interior of B.C. The Company employs well trained and skilled artists, screen printers and embroiders as well as a cut and sew department to satisfy your need for custom manufactured uniforms.

Our sales staff is courteous and knowledgeable. In the event your questions cannot be answered immediately, they will be dealt with in a timely fashion. The recent addition of large format digital imaging and laminating services adds an exciting new technology to our services that has helped many of our customers raise badly needed funds to help in the operational costs of their Team, School or Organization.

When a company gradually grows from 2 employees to 14 over 25 years, I for one believe the company must be doing a lot more things right than the average company. This success is related to a number of things, but our commitment to customer service before and after a sale is still our #1 promise to all our valued customers. Our pricing is competitive and delivery is reasonable and consistent and we look forward to serving you.

Respectfully

Bruce van Hellemond.
