Hi all

Starting a new business

Need Tshirts cheap as possible will be buying no more than 50 so most main suppliers wouldn't accommodate.
Where do new business buy from as don't want a massive stock I can't sell if business does not work.

Thank you

Hi.

In business you have to take risks, or 'speculate to accumulate' as me old Grandad used to say. You'll not get discounted stock unless you buy in bulk.

You could start by becoming a Premium member of this forum, and then you'd receive 10% discount off your orders with some of the main suppliers. Not to be sniffed at! :eek:

As above. You'll probably go through 50 getting the printing process right and then creating samples to photograph. Remember you will need different sizes as well and tshirts are different for woman and men. Your best bet may be just to use a 3rd party if you want to test the water with designs first.

Mdp Supplies are reasonably priced on the basics. Buy Tshirts online (.co.uk) are cheap enough on Gildan and Fruit of the Loom. Both will let you mix sizes and colours to get quantity discounts, neither have minimum orders, and both let you order online without the need to open an account.

As you get bigger/busier, BTC Activwear sell everything at carton rate, so there is rarely need to hold much stock, other than the basics.

If you sign up to our premium membership we can get you carton rate plus an extra 10% with a great supplier. All ongoing orders are still at the cartons rate ;-)
