EG-PRO Performance Gear is a factory direct manufacturer of blank athletic apparel designed and engineered for screen-printing, embroidery and sublimation decoration processes. For the past 20 years we have been behind-the-scenes manufacturing and importing blank apparel for some of the industry’s giants so we have carried their reputations firmly on our shoulders. We are 100% vertical, which is how we can develop and introduce new fabrics on a consistent basis. We believe you will fall in love with our advanced fabrics, performance technologies, high quality, attentive customer service and revolutionary prices.

Can you share with everyone a little about your company and commitment to the dealer/retailer network?

We are a vertical company that owns its fabric mills and factories overseas. While most companies are dealing with supply chain issues due to the pandemic, it is actually not a problem for us. As a true manufacturer, we stock sufficient inventory in our warehouse in Kansas. With over 20 years of experience in this industry, we know how important it is to keep color consistency across our stocked products. We are also able to fulfill factorydirect custom orders if customers want to do a custom piece (at customers’ request), and we deliver with competitive prices and lead time.

What are some of the new/innovative products everyone should know about?

We are adding more colors to our existing assortment. Most importantly, we are adding a brand-new fleece this Winter. It’s 280 gsm, 100% polyester cotton hand. Perfect for sublimation.

How have you adapted in the past yearand-a-half from COVID?

Although we did deal with tough times during the COVID outbreak, we were able to get through it. Now that things are starting to open up again, we believe there will be more opportunities than ever, for both our customers and ourselves.

What are you looking forward to about this year’s Management Conference? What do you find most valuable?

We are looking forward to the round table forums. This will give EG-PRO as a manufacturer the opportunity to visit with dealers and find out what they are looking for from us. We will also be able to introduce our line to them.
