The challenge of supplying Embroidered Uniforms

Some of the challenges that a school faces in supplying embroidered uniforms

1. The challenge of holding stock within the school. With so many school garments available: blazers, ties, jumpers, sweat shirts, PE clothing etc this can cause a problem which is magnified when you add in all the sizing options
2. The issue of spending school budget to pay for clothing that will then sit in a store cupboard
3. Making it easy for parents to order, make payment and then collect. If your school is awash with paper based forms that have to be completed and then uploaded and then be submitted there may be an easier option.

Embroidered Corporate Clothing for Sales Staff

Smart personalised corporate work from polos to suits, fleeces to trousers, delivered on time every time.

Inevitably, we have seen a few changes along the way.  Our range originally consisted of just 8 items, now the choice extends to over 286 different styles. From the original traditional polo shirt, we now have over 26 different types of Polo Shirt to choose from mens, ladies, fitted, traditional fit, contrast colours, bespoke colours, piping styles and the new kid on the block; the Wicking Polo Shirt with its high tech moisture management system. Ideal for those hot exhibitions.

One of our biggest sellers has been the Oxford style shirt, which now extends to over 12 colours and there are plenty of trousers and skirts to mix and match with. All ranges are now available in coordinating men’s and ladies styles. Our smart Corporate range from Wardrobes, remains ever popular with our larger corporate customers, although smaller companies, doctors surgeries, Solicitors etc. are finding the range equally useful for customer-facing or reception staff to wear. Call for our latest Corporate wear catalogue.

All garments can be embroidered in a way that reflects your image. We can do the traditional left chest logo, but have you considered something more subtle on the collar or at the back under the collar? Sleeve embroidery is great for exhibition wear and why not add your staff names onto the shirts for the personal touch.

If you are unsure, take advantage of our experience and let us advise you on your look. Give us a call and see how we can help enhance your image today.

Ugandan School Trip Printed Clothing

We provide primary and secondary schools with bulk orders delivered direct to the schools.

These can be packed exactly to the school requirements ( i.e. student manpacks, boxed in sizes, etc ) We can also offer a state of the art website which allows schools to have their own uniform shop. It  links direct from the school website. This eliminates the need for the school to hold stock, freeing up school staff time and saves both  time and money ( see our case study ). The school page is customised to your school and orders are despatched straight to individual pupil’s addresses. Orders can be tracked and parents can call us direct if there are issues. Our aim is to take the hassle out of school uniforms for both parent and pupils. We pride ourselves on never being late with a delivery.

Our range is vast and we provide most of the recognised  schoolwear brands. All uniforms are printed or embroidered in house, and we hold stock for our online schools. This allows us to dispatch order within a day or so of the order arriving. We provide a top to toe service from blazers through to PE socks.

For our school customers, we offer sponsorships and discounts of additional non uniform products, for example ski trips or leavers hoodies.

Why not take advantage of our vast experience. Give us a call, request our school brochure and we will pop over to visit you. Here are what a few of our existing schools have to say…

Hampton College

When we opened Hampton College as a brand new secondary school in September 2005, we made the decision to use Total Promotions as our school uniform supplier: we have never regretted this decision.

The quality of the clothing has been excellent, and nothing has been too much trouble for Jan and her staff; they have always met our deadlines, even when they have involved fast turn-arounds.

We would be very happy to recommend Total Promotions to other schools who are thinking about choosing an online supplier, and to welcome visitors who want to have a look at our students to see how smart they look.

Peter Hains – Headteacher

This was how our school uniform ordering process used to work:

Each year, we started preparations for our busy new intake period in April.
The following were included:

• Creating and copying order forms with correct prices and sizing details on
• Issuing order forms to parents and students
• Hosting parents evening for the new pupils to try on garments for size.
• Chasing non returned order forms
• Collating returned order forms
• Chasing bounced cheques, querying incorrectly placed orders
• Placing bulk orders with suppliers ( plus estimating the amount extra we would need to hold in stock  for ad hoc orders )
• Chasing suppliers for deliveries, stressing that the deliveries were not going to arrive on time
• Taking receipt of lots of boxes, hopefully in time. Checking in supplier orders
• Organising 4 people to  man end of August open days to pick orders ( 3 hours per person  over 2 days = 24 hours)
• Sorting ongoing sizing problems with parents and pupils etc with clothing issued.
• Coping with ad hoc ringing in or calling in to collect additional items throughout the year. ( 1+ hours per school week  = 35 hours)

For existing pupils, there was the requirement to hold stock ( we held £ 6000 )We also required the full use of a large classroom, plus access to a separate changing facility.

To summarise;

During the general school year, I calculate that I spent around 4 hours a week on uniform issues, rising to 2 weeks fulltime in the summer, plus the help of my assistants on collection and sorting days. ( £ 10.00 /hour assumed cost )

• 4 X 39 school weeks = 156 hours  £ 1560
• Summer season 2 full weeks =  60 hours    £ 600
• 4 people manning collection days = 24 hours    £ 240
• Stock   £ 6000
• Use of storage facilities???
• Annual sales in this school of £ 26,000    ( 10% commission )    £ 2600
• TOTAL SAVING TO SCHOOL    £11,000
