Home Based B2B Embroidered Workwear Business – Established 1994, Outsourced Production, Typically 10–15 Hours a Week

Established in 1994 and under current ownership since 2022, this relocatable, home-based business, run from Hertfordshire, supplies embroidered and printed workwear, uniforms and corporate clothing to small and medium-sized businesses. The established customer base is concentrated in Oxfordshire, Gloucestershire and Warwickshire and includes pubs and hotels, venues, trades and local employers.

All production and delivery is outsourced to an established UK embroidery and print partner on competitive rates. No stock is held, and there are no premises or employees, so overheads are very low.
