What do you love about working in the garment industry? And what do you loathe? Nic Simons, founder of Shirt Monkey in Cheshire, shares his pet likes and dislikes…

LOVE IT!

  • Hearing that a customer has recommended us

  • Onboarding new clients

  • Seeing growth on our print count tracker

  • Never running out of my own printed garments

  • Finishing for the last day after a busy Christmas rush

LOATHE IT!

  • Discontinued products

  • When a popular style changes cut or shape

  • When a customer questions if we have enough capacity to support their growth plans

  • When a customer asks to supply their own garments to save money

  • Poor quality artwork that’s been resaved at 300dpi
