Lovely to work with Apparel Plus.Tommy D.Tommy D. ★★★★★ Great experience! Brandy and Amy were wonderful. Not only were they easy to work with and accommodating to my many questions, but they took the time to even suggest multiple options and modifications that I hadn't even conceived. All of this resulted in me receiving an even better outcome than I had envisioned. They proved that no job is too small and every customer is worthy of stellar customer service and attention.

Always so helpful and kind.Fred Astaire Dance Studio - M.Fred Astaire Dance Studio - M. ★★★★★ Cristin P.Cristin P. ★★★★★ I ordered one single "joke" shirt and it came out perfect! Also, my sales representative, Brandy Bourdia, was phenomenal when it came to her customer service (which was very refreshing) as well as design, proof and re-proof to make adjustments I requested after changing my mind. If all companies had a “Brandy” taking/processing their orders, no one would ever have any complaints. Thanks Brandy! 😀Heather BHeather B ★★★★★ Great customer service!

Rich is an incredible guy. He and his staff go above and beyond for you. I have personally been a customer or Rich for many businesses and non profit organizations. Including youth sports teams on the local, state and national levels. For one business Rich was able to come up with something that at the time was not being done by anyone on my apparel. I later sold that business to a now global sports media organization after a very short time. Rich's work on the apparel end of that business was surely one of the reasons why it was acquired so fast. Just incredible work by Rich. I cant suggest his company enough.Nort W.Nort W. ★★★★★ I have bought tee shirts, long sleeve tees sweatshirts and work coats every year for my business and have always been pleased with the workmanship, quality of the garments and the prices are reasonable.Good value - Buy LocalJennifer L.Jennifer L. ★★★★★ My brother stopped by here in need of an embroidered design put onto a birthday present for his wife.
