BlogPrint, Pack, Ship
Short answer: French Press Custom prints your merch in Santa Fe Springs, then finishes, packs and ships it. One shop handles the shirts, the labels, the boxes and the UPS or FedEx labels, for brands, creators, schools and companies.
What We Handle
Everything happens in our shop on Rosecrans Ave, from the first print to the shipping label.
Screen printing, embroidery, DTG and DTF in our own shop. Screen printing starts at 36 pieces per design, embroidery at 24, DTF at 12, and DTG has no minimum.
Fold and polybag, hangtags, woven or tagless labels, label removal and UPC stickers, priced per piece.
Sorted and packed by person, team, location or store order, so each box is ready to hand out or ship.
Local delivery is available for a fee (added to the estimate), or orders ship by UPS or FedEx anywhere in the US. Or pick up at our Santa Fe Springs shop.
We build and run Shopify stores for merch. Customers order online, and we print, pack and ship each order.
If your program needs printed stock held for later orders, tell us the volume and timing and we quote it with the program.
