Off Shore Experience
Custom Sportswear's huge strength is our ability to manufacture off shore within our own factory. Employing 30 to 40 people.

· The managing director of our off shore factory has been producing fabric for the international market for 23 years, specialising in cotton, polyester, and poly cotton mix, duties include material manufacture, pattern making, printing, embroidery, heat pressing, garment construction, inventory and freight.

· We produce all our own fabrics within our own factory thus eliminating all middlemen. This allows us total control of stock levels and the manufacture of garments at far better price points.

· Just some of the materials we produce include, cotton and polyester lycra, aerolite, microfibre and several grades of footy fabrics, cool dry materials and pique knit fabrics.

· Our offshore factory holds contracts for the production of jockey's underwear.

· The majority of deliveries from our overseas factory are sent airfreight with on 3 days factory to factory.

Factory Equipment
When setting up Custom Sportswear, we knew through our own hard-earned experience within the garment industry, that anything can happen and usually does. For this reason we have put in place a back up system for every conceivable situation and machine.

Within our local factory we have all the machinery and personnel required to produce any sublimation or logo application order. These machines and the personnel to run them are mirrored in our offshore factory. In other words - two fold.

We consider this so important we often have idle machines in our factory to enable us to handle any emergency.

Local Suppliers - on occasion we will use local suppliers for such garments as pique knit polo shirts and cotton tee shirts. Local suppliers are useful when a club requires the minimum quantity of garments on a regular basis.

But all efforts will be made to custom manufacture all apparel.

Sub Contractors - Custom Sportswear has based the operation of its factory and in fact the whole set up of its business on the concept that the fewer sub contractors involved in the manufacturing process the better. If we employ the people, we can always be in total control of all your orders, with no need to rely on people that we don't control.

The one area that we will need to use sub contractors in is if a team or association requires Australian made product. Due to the financial burden of having a trained seamstress employed and not busy, we have a contract with a local sewing company that:

· Have been making garments for the sportswear, corporate and school markets for over 15 years.

· Have been producing a wide range of garments specializing in pattern making and garment construction.

· Has access to over 30 sewing staff at any one time and have the ability to turn orders around immediately for Custom Sportswear.
