A UK teamwear supplier that is also the factory
Most UK clubs buy kit through a teamwear supplier who orders from a factory. We are that factory, and we work both ways: direct with clubs, schools and leagues, and white label for UK teamwear suppliers who sell under their own brand.
Popular UK orders are football kits, rugby kits, netball dresses, cricket kits, training wear and golf society wear. The minimum order is 10 pieces per design; samples take about 2 weeks and bulk 3–4 weeks after approval. UK buyers may qualify for reduced import duty under the UK DCTS scheme — check your product codes with your customs broker.
