Case Study · School & Institutional

Three schools. 15,000 labels. One delivery.

A Hyderabad uniform stitcher won a tender to supply three schools for the new academic year. 15,000 labels in total — three crests, four house colours per school, and personalised name tabs for ~5,000 students. Standard suppliers wanted 6 weeks; the academic session started in 4.

The Challenge

The challenge

Three different crests, four house colours each, 5,000 personalised name tabs — and the labels had to survive 200+ school laundry cycles per garment. Plus skin-safe for Class 1 to Class 12 students.

The Solution

What we did

Locked thread shades to each school account day 1. Built a single bulk damask run for the crests (cheaper unit price), then ran personalisation in three batches by school. Student lists ingested as CSVs — per-name preview sent before bulk. All 15,000 dispatched in three school-tagged cartons.

High-density damask weave

Built for 200+ wash cycles.

Personalised name tabs

5,000 student names from CSV imports.

School-tagged cartons

Three separate boxes, one delivery.

The Result

The result

All three schools opened the new session with branded uniforms. Stitcher won the next year's tender too — same recipe, no re-quoting. Re-orders now run as a standing slot every June.

"We almost lost the tender because nobody could deliver in 4 weeks. The school-tagged cartons saved us a day of sorting at our end."
