We're a Ramsgate workshop, and a lot of our favourite jobs are for people right on our doorstep. A cafe in Broadstairs, a football club, a mobile mechanic, a landscaper, a race team with a long list of sponsors. Here's a look at the kind of local work we do, and how easy it is to get your own team kitted out.
Embroidery, Digitised And Stitched In Ramsgate
Everything starts with your logo. We digitise it ourselves, which means turning the artwork into the stitch instructions the machine follows, and it's free. There's no set-up fee and no minimum order, so a single embroidered polo is as welcome as fifty. Your logo and files are stored for reorders at no charge, so when you take on a new member of staff you don't start from scratch.
Our embroidery in Ramsgate page has the full picture. The short version: sharp, hard-wearing stitched logos on polos, hoodies, fleeces, hi-vis and more, done in-house.
A Few Of The Local Jobs
Our Our Work page shows more than we can fit here. These are some of the jobs that give a good idea of the range:
- Cafes and restaurants. Embroidered polos for Porto Reale and Viking Bay Cafe in Broadstairs, plus embroidered chef jackets for Wandering Hut. Our guide to hospitality workwear goes into what we'd put a kitchen and front-of-house team in.
- Football and sport. Training kit with sponsor branding for Thanet District FC, and staff polos for Kix Arena, a football training arena. For more ideas see our post on kit for clubs and teams.
- Trades and outdoor work. Embroidered sweatshirts for SK Landscaping, and branded kit for RJM AutoCare, a mobile auto repair business. Our motor trade and gardening and landscaping pages show what suits those jobs.
- Crews and coaches. Installation crew polos for Rebecca Harris Interiors, and a branded fitness coach T-shirt for Fit For Life Coaching.
- Sponsor-heavy shirts. A race team polo for Thomas Merritt Racing with multiple sponsors, which shows what you can do when there are lots of logos to fit on one shirt.
- Community groups. An embroidered polo for Heart In The Community.
What these jobs have in common is that they're ordinary, useful kit. A team that looks the same, with a logo that stays sharp wash after wash.
Embroidery, Vinyl Or DTF?
Embroidery is our main thing, but it isn't right for everything. A job with fine detail or lots of colours, such as a sponsor-heavy shirt, may suit a heat-applied logo better. We do embroidery, HTV (vinyl) and DTF. The vinyl is cut and pressed in-house, and DTF transfers are bought in from trusted UK suppliers and heat-applied here. We don't do screen printing. If you're not sure, our guide to embroidery, vinyl or DTF will help you choose, or ask and we'll recommend one for your garment.
Drop It In Or Post It
If you're local, you can bring your garments to us at 2 Old School Row, St Lawrence, Ramsgate. Message us first so we know to expect you. If you're further afield, post them in. Most of our orders arrive by post whatever the postcode. Postage and packaging is extra, or you can collect from the workshop.
We say most jobs are ready in 48 hours. If you have a deadline, such as a first match of the season or a busy weekend, tell us when you enquire.
Ordering For A Team?
- Volume discount. It comes off the whole order automatically: 5% off from 10 items, 10% off from 25 and 15% off from 50. Here's how it works.
- Trade account. A free trade account takes 10% off, and the volume discount stacks on top.
- Your own garments. Already have kit that needs a logo? See our supply your own page.

Questions
Where are you based, and can I drop my garments in?
We're at 2 Old School Row, St Lawrence, Ramsgate, Kent CT11 0EW. If you're local you can drop garments off in person, and if you'd rather not travel you can post them in. Please get in touch first so we can agree the job and the best time to call.
Do I have to be in Thanet to order?
No. Most of our orders come in by post whether the customer is in Ramsgate or elsewhere in the country, and the same prices and the same free digitising apply wherever you are.
What do you charge to set up my logo?
Nothing. There is no set-up fee and digitising your logo for embroidery is free. We also store your logo and files for reorders at no charge.
Is there a minimum order?
No. One embroidered polo is fine. Volume discounts come off the whole order automatically: 5% from 10 items, 10% from 25 items and 15% from 50 items.
How long does an order take?
We say most jobs are ready in 48 hours. If you have a deadline, such as a first match or an event, tell us when you enquire and we'll let you know what's realistic.
Can you do club or sponsor branding as well as embroidery?
Yes. Alongside embroidery we offer vinyl (HTV) printing, cut and pressed in-house, and DTF transfers, which we buy in from UK suppliers and heat-apply here. We don't do screen printing. Our guide on embroidery, vinyl and DTF explains which suits which job.
