Fresh Prints

Custom garment printing and embroidery from Doncaster

Fresh Prints is a Doncaster-based business that designs, prints and embroiders custom garments. Its catalogue spans menswear, womenswear and childrenswear, and the company also positions itself as a supplier of printed and embroidered sportswear, school wear, team kits and sports accessories. Alongside clothing it produces flyers, business cards and vehicle signage, and it handles logo design and branding work for clients ranging from start-ups to established organisations.

The company states that it holds a catalogue of more than 10,000 garment products, covering items such as T-shirts, hoodies, jumpers, softshell jackets, fleeces, vests and hats in men's, women's and kids' sizing.

Printing methods offered

Fresh Prints describes four main garment decoration techniques, each suited to different types of artwork and finishes:

• Direct to Garment (DTG): digital printing of full-colour images directly onto garments.
• Embroidery: artwork is digitised and converted into stitches, then sewn onto the item.
• Cad-Cut Vinyl: designs, logos, shapes, names or numbers are cut from specialist vinyl using cutting machines.
• Digital Transfer: full-colour designs are printed onto transfer paper and applied to garments.

Screen printing also appears among the print methods listed in the company's quote forms.

Embroidery applications

Beyond standard embroidery, the company lists workwear, sports team and club uniforms, school uniforms, 3D puff embroidery, caps and hats, and badges or patches. It presents embroidered items as a way of giving teams a consistent identity and of promoting a brand, citing embroidered polo shirts, caps and bags as examples.

Clubs, teams and sponsored athletes

Fresh Prints works with sports clubs and organisations and maintains a section for the clubs it supports. Named clubs include St Peters Boxing Club, Endeavour Martial Arts, Five Towns Powerlifting, Great Britain Powerlifting and Teeside Barbarians Powerlifting Club. It also references Stefy Bull Promotions and Caged Steel (CSFC), and runs a sponsorship section inviting athletes to apply.

Occasion and themed ranges

The clothing store is organised partly around occasions and themes, with dedicated collections for stag parties, hen parties, male and female holidays and fancy dress, alongside themed lines such as sport, wine lovers, animal lovers, tie dye, beard lovers and "for the other half".

Design, branding and print work

The design side of the business covers logo design and branding as well as clothing design. The print side extends beyond garments to flyers, business cards and vehicle signage. The company describes itself as a single source for design, print, promotional and marketing needs, and says it works with clients on bespoke logos for start-ups, complex brand creation and one-off T-shirt prints.

Background

According to the company's own account, Fresh Prints began in 2013 in the attic bedroom of a student shared flat. Its founder and manager, Jamie, was studying Sports Business Management at Leeds Beckett University at the time and started the venture as a hobby. After completing his first year, he moved to larger premises, renting an additional room for the growing business, and brought in three graduated friends to help with the workload.

Quotes and order enquiries

The site separates quote requests into garment printing, garment embroidery and general enquiries. The printing form asks for the print method, placement, size, colours, garment type, colour, sizing breakdown and quantities, and allows artwork to be uploaded or a logo requested. The embroidery form collects similar details plus thread colour.
