For screen printers and decorators

The orders you turn away can run on our floor

You are already good at this. You just can't run a twelve-piece reorder on a press that's booked for the next three weeks. Send those jobs here. They come back — or go straight to your customer — with your name on them and ours nowhere in sight.

The four jobs that cost shops money

You don't need another vendor. You need capacity.

Most shops lose the same four kinds of order, over and over, and they're rarely the ones you'd choose to lose. None of them are a problem here.

The order that's too small

A twelve-piece reorder, a single replacement jersey, one sample for a pitch. Real work you don't want to lose, but setting up a press for it costs more than it earns.

The week you're already full

Back-to-school, playoffs, the week three customers all say yes. The press is booked solid and the only alternative is a date you can't promise.

The method you don't run

You print, but the job came in with a left-chest embroidery. Or it's embroidery you do, and this one wants full-colour transfers on fifty hoodies.

The customer who wants drop-ship

They want it sent straight to each player, each officer, each employee. That's a packing operation you never planned to run.

How it runs

Four steps, and then it's just a routine

Send us the job

Email the artwork, the garment, the quantity and where it ships. No portal to learn, no onboarding call required.

We quote and confirm the date

You get a price and a production date back. If the date doesn't work, you hear that immediately rather than on the day it was due.

We source, decorate and inspect

We buy the blanks or use yours, decorate them in-house, and check every piece before it's packed.

It ships under your name

Back to your shop, or straight to your customer with your branding on the outside and on the packing slip.

The numbers you actually need

What we can tell you before you call

Most contract decorators make you ring up to learn the basics. Here they are.

Minimum order: No minimum order quantity on the on-demand program — one piece or a hundred.
Production time: 3–5 business days in production once art is approved, plus transit.
Decoration methods: Screen printing, embroidery and direct-to-film (DTF), all under one roof.
Blanks: We source them, or you send your own goods in.
Shipping: Back to your shop, or blind-shipped direct to your customer.
Branding: Your name on the garment and the packing slip. Ours appears nowhere.
Artwork: Vector or high-resolution raster for screen printing and DTF. DST for embroidery, or we digitise from your file.
Who we sell to: Other businesses only. No retail counter, no direct-to-consumer sales, no competing for your customer.

The part most shops don't expect

We can also run the storefront your customer keeps asking for

Half the shops who send us overflow end up using this instead. Your customer gets their own branded online store; you get the margin; nobody has to pre-buy a single garment.

A storefront branded for your customer, not for us and not for you
You set the retail prices and keep the margin
Unlimited stores — one per team, per department, per season
No inventory: each order is produced after it is sold
We decorate and ship every order as it comes in
You stay the only name your customer ever sees

We produce on STAHLS' Fulfill Engine, which is how a store, a spreadsheet or an API call all end up on the same production floor. You never have to touch it — but if you already run stores on Shopify, OrderMyGear, Chipply or commonsku, that is the reason your orders can reach us without being retyped.

Straight answers

Questions shops ask before the first job

Will you contact my customer?

No. We are business-to-business only — we have no retail storefront and we do not sell to end users. Your customer's details are used to put a label on a box and nothing else. If you want it in writing, we'll sign a non-circumvention agreement before the first job.

Whose name is on the shipment?

Yours. The packing slip, the return address and anything inside the box carry your branding. There is no Decoration Connection insert, sticker or logo.

What's the real turnaround?

Three to five business days in production once artwork is approved, plus transit. If you have a date you have to hit, tell us when you send the job and we will tell you straight away whether we can hit it.

Is there a minimum?

Not on the on-demand program. One piece is a real order. Screen printing is priced to reward volume, so a one-off usually makes more sense in DTF — we'll say so when we quote it rather than letting you overpay.

Can you hold my blanks, or do you source them?

Either. Send your own goods in, or let us source them. Most partners let us buy the blanks so there is nothing sitting in their shop between orders.

What do you need from me to start?

Artwork, the garment, the quantity and the ship-to. Vector or high-resolution raster for screen printing and DTF, and a DST or the original art for embroidery — if you only have a JPEG, we'll digitise it.

Send us one job and see how it comes back

No account minimum, no monthly fee, no contract to sign before you test us. Send one order, look at what arrives, then decide how much more to hand over.
