Uniform catalogue

Shared base, brand layer.

We don't sell from a fixed catalogue. Each brand gets its own look, built on base garments shared across the group. Pick a brand and a team.

Colours are placeholders until we receive each brand's guidelines.

Shared across every brand

  • Same fabric and cut for each base garment
  • One size chart for the whole group
  • One supplier and one quality standard
  • Spare sizes that move between brands

Specific to the brand

  • Colour palette from its guidelines
  • Logo placement and branding method
  • Trims, buttons and apron details

Need a piece that isn't listed? We design it to your brief.

Built for long shifts and kitchen heat.

Breathable, stain-resistant fabrics, chosen per role. Kitchen pieces are made to handle heat and frequent washing, front-of-house pieces to keep their look through a full shift.

Branding matched to each concept.

The method is chosen per garment and per brand, so a fine-dining waistcoat and a café cap are each branded the right way.

EmbroideryWoven labelsHeat transferScreen print

Every brand's colours, held batch to batch.

Colours are matched to each brand's guidelines and checked at sampling and in production, so a shirt made this year matches one made next year.

Matched to brand guidelinesChecked at every batch

One size chart across the group.

Size sets are held per outlet, so new joiners are dressed on day one without rush orders. Because the base garments are shared, spare sizes can move between brands.

Within this outlet's allowance. Sent to HQ for approval.

1 portalfor every outlet

Outlet managers order from a branded portal with each role's allowance built in. HQ approves, we pack and deliver to the outlet.

Try ordering more than the allowance: the order is flagged before it reaches procurement.

OutletSizes on handWith staffDue for replacement

Sample data. The live view filters by brand, outlet and city, and exports to Excel.

Replacement cycles

Each piece gets a replacement interval, so kitchen whites can run on a shorter cycle than front-of-house shirts. Items are replaced on schedule, not on request.

Recovery at exit

When someone leaves, the pieces they hold are listed for return, or written off with a reason.

Connects to your systems

Employee records can sync with your HR system, so joiners and leavers update the uniform record automatically.

Use it on its own

The software also runs with your current uniform supplier. Uniforms and software can be taken together or separately.

Pricing structure and minimums

How the quote is built.

Every program is quoted once we know your roles and volumes. These are the parts of the price, and what moves them.
