Serving Stratford
Custom Printing for Stratford
The RAD Studio is a downtown Stratford print shop for people who want to discuss a real project with a local maker. Customers come to us for one personalized item, coordinated staff apparel, team and school orders, fundraiser shirts, event pieces, DTF printing, and promotional products. Because production happens in-house, questions about artwork, placement, product choice, and timing can be considered together instead of being passed between unrelated suppliers.
Projects shaped around the customer, not a minimum
Being local is especially useful when the deadline matters or the order has several moving parts. A Stratford restaurant may need replacement staff shirts without reordering a large quantity. A theatre group may need cast and crew apparel before opening night. A business may need one new-hire hoodie added to an earlier order. Starting with the actual use, quantity, size range, and date helps us recommend a practical route.
Plan artwork, sizing, and timing together
Local pickup at 25 Ontario St makes it easier to keep shipping time out of the schedule. Same-day printing may be possible when the garment is available, the artwork is ready, and production capacity allows it; it is not a blanket promise for every product. If the date is firm, send it first. We can then explain what is realistic and whether a stocked item or a different print approach would protect the deadline.
Useful custom printing options
Common Stratford projects include downtown business apparel, festival and event shirts, school and team gear, contractor work shirts, staff hoodies, market merchandise, family gifts, and short-run promotional pieces. T-shirts may be available through 6XL and hoodies through 5XL in selected styles, helping groups order for more of their people without splitting the project between suppliers.
What to include in your request
Send the item type, quantity, complete size list, garment or product colour, desired print locations, best artwork file or share link, and the date the finished order must be in your hands. Mention whether matching an earlier order, individual names, sorting, or extended sizing is required.
Projects are produced in-house at The RAD Studio, 25 Ontario St in Stratford. We will confirm product availability, artwork readiness, price, and timing before production begins.
