Reinventing the Neck Label

Oct 1, 2024

This is a real Jiffy story.

A large-scale golf apparel brand, renowned for its embroidered polo shirts, faced an unexpected issue. Their shipment of 50,000 shirts, carefully constructed overseas, arrived at their New Jersey headquarters, but something crucial was missing—neck labels on all their M and XL size shirts. Without these labels, containing essential info like size, fabrication details, and washing instructions, the entire shipment of these sizes would be unsaleable.

Returning the shirts to the overseas mill by cargo ship would be out of the question—too costly and time-consuming. Faced with the potential loss of inventory and mounting deadlines, the US-based staff sprung into action to find a quick and effective solution.

The team discovered Jiffy Transfers through a Google search. Using Jiffy’s streamlined process, they quickly uploaded their neck label design, entered the dimensions and quantities they needed, and checked out. The next day, their order of 10,000 DTF neck labels arrived at their warehouse, pre-cut and ready to go. The team was able to get straight to work pressing the labels inside the neckline of each shirt. The transfers adhered permanently, and the business had no worries about adhesion because DTF works on any textile. The apparel brand met their deadline and quickly got back to business as usual.

Customers who purchased their shirts provided positive feedback, praising the softness and comfort of the new labels. Impressed by the quality, efficiency and great feedback, the company has since added Jiffy to their list of trusted go-to's whenever they find themselves in a pinch. With the confidence that Jiffy can quickly resolve any unforeseen issues, they know they have a reliable partner that delivers quality solutions without breaking the bank.
