Overview

In 2021, The Midcounties Co-operative submitted a tender to supply uniforms for 3 of their trading groups.

Winning the contract, we now supply a full range of garments for their childcare, travel and food teams.

Providing a detailed brief, our Account Manager was able to source garments that were an exact match to their requirements which also looked good with their new branding.

From chef wear and PPE, to corporate suiting and accessories, we have developed a full range which employees can easily call off using their bespoke online ordering system, LINK, which is due to launch this year.

The Problem

The Midcounties Co-operative wanted a uniform supplier who could source garments that were a close match to their current uniform pieces, however they wanted to put a bigger focus on sustainability.

They also wanted to ensure consistency across their wearers and were looking for an easier way to call off their products.

The Solution

Our in-house specialists worked with The Midcounties Co-operative to assess their current uniforms and come up with like for like, if not better, alternatives.

They were impressed that we were able to offer eco-friendly alternatives to their existing corporate wear with suits made completely from recycled plastic bottles. 

We also pitched our unique online ordering system link and they were impressed with its user-friendly and cost-saving features.

The Results

Having only worked together for a short amount of time we've already achieved some impressive results for The Midcounties Co-operative.

- We have embroidered 3,156 garments

- We have printed 2,250 garments

- We have tax tabbed 300 garments

- We are currently developing a fully-customisable online ordering system which is due to launch this year

- We have provided guides for The Midcounties Co-operative to circulate to their colleagues, introducing our new partnership and showing them how to wear their new uniforms

"Our newly formed relationship with Infinity Inc is going from strength to strength. Their shared values and understanding of our diverse needs as an organisation shone through during the tender process and they’ve helped us to create a fit-for-purpose range of uniforms, supported by innovative solutions and streamlined ordering methods. It’s been a pleasure working with the whole team so far, who are committed to providing excellent customer service and we are looking forward to working together as the contract commences."
