EmbroidMe

Franchise opportunities
The need for businesses to get noticed through brand recognition and advertising has rapidly increased due to the steady growth of competitive services. As a result, this need to get noticed has propelled the embroidery industry to a $20 billion market.

EmbroidMe has been at the forefront of this growth as one of the world's first embroidery and promotional products franchises; successfully franchising the full-service embroidery, screen printing, promotional products and personalized gifts concept for over six years. We have used our experience to develop a business model that has led hundreds of EmbroidMe franchisees to success and helped us grow to become the world's largest embroidery franchise. As part of our family you get the full support and services of the EmbroidMe team - a group that is committed to providing you with the training, consulting, equipment and resources you need to make your EmbroidMe store successful.

Site selection
As we all know, the location of a business is crucial to its success. Therefore, we carefully research and select every EmbroidMe site, analyzing factors such as traffic patterns and client potential. Once all criteria are met and a location has been selected, we assist in negotiating your lease and your store's build-out.

It is only when you are comfortable with your location, lease terms and marketing area that we move to the next phase of the process - we assist you in the transition to ownership and the start-up process begins.

Cutting-edge technology
Every EmbroidMe location features the latest in cutting-edge technology. Your franchise package includes everything you need to operate as a full-service embroidery retailer. Quality products are paramount and help build trust in the EmbroidMe brand; therefore, your investment includes the industry's best embroidery equipment manufactured by Brother International Machinery.

As you will see through our extensive training program, the equipment is easy to use. Plus, as a Brother product, you can feel comfortable knowing you have quality equipment that combines reliability and top-of-the-line production capability.
