Hi, what you should do as a good starting point is buy 'Exchange and Mart' and look in the back of it - there's usually a good 3 or 4 pages for T-Shirt printers and the like.

Good luck

I'm sure I can sort something out.
I'm still in the process of designing and getting the designs on the computer and looking for a printer.
My plan, if it's possible, is to print 2 or 3 of each design in my size, wear them to test and promote them further and then start getting them made in bulk loads.
It's all very exciting

Annie,

If you're looking to go into corporate uniforms I could well be your first customer smile

If you can get hold of T-Shirts by a manufacturer called 'Uneek', and can give me a price for various sizes in Navy with a small white logo and a web address across the sleeve also in white. I will probably want somewhere between 50 and 60. The reason I've picked Uneek is that I have seen samples of their products and I'd be quite happy with them. Also, We have a sample of each size already in the office so I can email you a list of sizes and numbers straight off the bat smile

I'd prefer the logo to be embroidered if that's possible too...

PM me if you want to talk turkey!

smile

Good luck with your venture! thumbup

Hi,
When you say printed T-shirts are you talking screen print
or are you interested in Flock or Vinyl prints?
Screen print is good for volume but you have to pay for plates
and setting up so for a couple of T-shirts is prohibitively expensive,
Flock (the furry stick on stuff) and Vinyl (smooth stick on stuff)
are both good for small quantities.
Also are you talking single colour or multi colour?

PM me if you want more info as I might be able to help you out.
