Why East Providence Businesses Choose Us

A Local Legacy on Waterman Ave

Short answer: Our shop has been at 375 Waterman Ave, right off Route 44 near the Henderson Bridge, since 1986 — we're not driving in from somewhere else to serve East Providence, we've been part of it for four decades.

East Providence has changed a lot since 1986 — the Waterfront District and Bold Point have grown into some of the city's most active commercial and residential areas, and the Wampanoag Trail carries a steady stream of corporate and medical offices. Through all of it, our shop has stayed in the same spot on Waterman Ave, which means the people who order from us aren't dealing with an out-of-town vendor. We're a five-minute drive, or a walk-in, from most of the city.

Screen Printing Right Here at Our Shop

Short answer: Screen printing happens right here at our East Providence shop on Waterman Ave — walk in with a logo, see a screen-printed sample in person, and pick up your finished order without ever leaving town.

Screen printing isn't outsourced or run through a subcontractor — it happens right here on Waterman Ave, the same shop we've run since 1986. Stop by with a logo file or even just an idea, and we'll show you real screen-printed samples and talk through garment and ink options in person. We screen print t-shirts and sweatshirts most often, plus certain cotton and cotton-blend polos when a cleaner, more polished look is called for. Every design runs on a 24-piece minimum, with most orders ready in about two weeks — and since you're already local, pickup is free and easy.
