Same Day Tees Moves to Frankfort; Brings Jobs, Extensive Apparel Printing, Embroidery Options for Local Businesses, Groups, Teams
Same Day Tees moves to its new headquarters in Frankfort in April, the custom screen printing and embroidery company will bring a wide range of resources typically unavailable from local printers.
“We’ll basically be a national printer right in the neighborhood,” said Same Day Tees President Pete Bolsoni.
The 15-year-old company has had its eye on Frankfort for some time since outgrowing its Peotone base thanks to booming sales. The move to 9525 W. Laraway Rd. more than doubles the business’ space, from 7,500 to 18,000 square feet.
With a staff of 25 artists, printers, embroiderers, quality control, customer service and sales personnel, Same Day Tees creates screen printed and embroidered tee shirts, polos, hoodies, caps, jackets, jerseys, work uniforms, and more for businesses, organizations, nonprofits, sports teams, and other groups.
“We do a lot of really complicated designs and cool pieces of art that most smaller shops aren’t capable of because they don’t have the talent or the equipment,” said Bolsoni.
Frankfort with its extensive industry, ideal demographics, and the high visibility of the Laraway Road location offered the perfect headquarters for Same Day Tees’ burgeoning business.
Bolsoni, who runs the company with his wife, Sandy, plans to expand the second shift by summer, increasing staff to 35 – 40 employees. The new location also will include a showroom where customers can explore samples and observe the printing and embroidery process. In addition to a variety of automatic and direct-to-garment presses and embroidery machines, the Frankfort facility offers space for a versatile 18-color press and new low water consumption, environmentally-friendly equipment.
“These were the key factors we were looking for,” said Bolsoni. “So when the Frankfort location popped up, we jumped on it.”
