I have always been interested in becoming an entrepreneur and when I got a chance to become one I utilized it to the fullest possible extent. One of my friends was ready to share the investment and we were able to strike a partnership. The idea was to start a factory for machine parts manufacturing. We started with 40 employees as a small scale industry and now have reached higher standards where we employ more than a thousand men and women. We always insist on discipline in the factory premises and our employees are given a uniform which they are expected to wear when they are on the factory floor. When we started the company with just forty employees we didn't give the uniforms much thought, we just went with a local supplier who offered the best price. They provided the uniforms quickly but we soon started having problems with the uniforms. First they were cheaply made and poorly designed. The style restricted our taller employees' movements, and others complained that the material was uncomfortable and hard to care for. As our company grew and complaints increased, we realized the poor quality uniforms were not a good idea. We had to find a uniform supplier who could provide us with a high volume of uniforms quickly and at a good price. As well, we needed to know the uniforms were of good quality. Luckily I found out about iD by Landau. This is an online company that provides durable uniforms in pleasing and comfortable styles at very reasonable prices. The were very prompt in delivering the
uniform work shirts and the
women's work shirts they have in their collection were really attractive. They have so many color choices and styles to choose from, and the volume discounts had their price comparable to the poorer quality uniforms we had started with. In the end I chose a
uniform polo shirt for our employees, one of the coed styles with a more relaxed fit to allow for easy movement and wearing comfort for both the men and women. Its a great look with everyone in the same style of uniform shirt with employees getting to choose their choice of color before we order. That way we are happy and our employees are happy. There is much to learn when starting a business such as this, such as paying attention to even the smallest of details can make such a difference. When employees are comfortable they are more productive, and we all benefit from that!
