Run your branded apparel business without the chaos

The complete platform for branded apparel and workwear businesses

Branded apparel businesses face a unique set of operational challenges. Every job involves artwork, sizing matrices, decoration methods, lead times and supplier coordination - all before a single garment ships.

• UK branded apparel suppliers typically manage 50-300 active client accounts across corporate, hospitality, and trades sectors.
• Minimum order quantities, size breakdowns, and decoration methods create complex line-item structures on every quote.
• Lead times vary from 3 days for stock garments to 12 weeks for fully custom woven or embroidered workwear.
• Many suppliers juggle 4-8 decoration suppliers and offshore manufacturers, creating multi-vendor purchase order dependencies.
• Spreadsheet-based order tracking causes frequent errors in size allocations, artwork approvals, and delivery scheduling.
