BuckWholesale Brings Embroidery In-House — What It Means for Your Custom Hat Orders
Posted by Timmy on 26th May 2026
For over two decades, BuckWholesale has been committed to one thing: making it easier for businesses to get the hats they need, at prices that make sense. Today, we're sharing news that takes that commitment to a whole new level.
We've invested in professional in-house embroidery machines — and we're now embroidering custom hats right here at our Suwanee, GA warehouse.

No more outsourcing. No more middlemen. No more waiting.
Why We Made This Investment
Our customers told us — through their orders, their emails, and their feedback — that speed and consistency matter most when it comes to custom hats. When you're running a clothing brand, an embroidery shop, or a promotional company, you can't afford delays from third-party vendors or inconsistent quality from outsourced production.
So we listened. We invested in professional embroidery machines — the same equipment used by serious custom apparel operations — and set them up right inside our 15,000 sq ft warehouse in Suwanee, GA.
The result? Faster turnaround. Tighter quality control. And the same trusted BuckWholesale pricing your business counts on.
What Changes for Your Business
Here's what in-house embroidery means in practice:
-
Faster Turnaround. We control the process from start to finish. When your order comes in, it goes straight to our floor — not to a third-party embroiderer with their own queue and their own timeline. Typical turnaround is now 2–3 weeks for USA in-house orders.
-
Better Quality Control. Every hat is embroidered, inspected, and packed by our own team before it ships. You get consistent stitching, accurate colors, and hats that represent your brand the way you intended.
-
Direct Communication. No more playing telephone through a middleman. You email us, we handle it. Questions about your order? You talk to the same team that's embroidering your hats.
-
Same Trusted Pricing. Better service doesn't mean higher prices. Our in-house embroidery program starts at $3.75/hat, with price breaks as your quantity grows.
