About Us

We are The Stitch Factory, a workwear and uniform supplier based in Sheffield. We have been supplying branded clothing from our works at Unit 2e, Nursery Works, 100 Little London Road, Sheffield S8 0UJ. We are a limited company registered in England and Wales, company number 04637128, VAT registration GB716351547.

What we supply

Our catalogue runs to over 4,000 products: polo shirts, t-shirts, sweatshirts and hoodies, trousers and shorts, jackets and softshells, hi-vis and safety wear, chefswear, healthcare and hospitality uniforms, headwear, bags and accessories. We buy from the main trade brands, so you can order the same garment again next year rather than being tied to a range that disappears.

What we do with it

Nearly everything we send out carries a name or a logo. We embroider, we screen print, and we apply direct-to-garment print, heat transfer and vinyl. Embroidery is the heart of the business and the reason for the name. If you are not sure which method suits your garment or your logo, tell us what the job is and we will advise; “not sure — advise me” is a valid answer on our quote form.

How ordering works

Small orders go straight through the website. Prices are shown excluding VAT by default, with a switch at the top of every page to show them including VAT. Each garment page carries a decoration pricing table, per garment, from a minimum of eight garments, with rates for 8–11, 12–23, 24–47 and 48 or more. For anything larger, mixed, or awkward, use Request a Quote: tell us the garment, the colour, the decoration method and the positions you want it in, upload your artwork, and we come back with a written quote. We accept AI, EPS, PDF, PNG, JPG and SVG artwork, and if you already have an embroidery file we will read the DST or EMB directly so the stitch count is exact rather than estimated. If you have no artwork yet, send the request anyway and email the files later.

Why buy from us

You are dealing with the people who do the work, in one building, in Sheffield. We quote in writing before anything goes on a machine, so there are no surprises on the invoice. Plain stock orders leave us in one to three working days and embroidered orders in seven to ten; delivery is £6.50 including VAT per order however many items are on it, and free over £120 before VAT. We supply schools too, through our sister site Stitch Factory Schools, where children's uniform is zero-rated for VAT.
