Podkin Enterprises, LLC was founded by Mike & Jen Podkin in the Spring of 2013 and is the parent company to Thread Ready.

Born from humble beginnings that included traveling to sporting events providing high-quality custom shirts and apparel, Thread Ready quickly became a preferred provider. Soon, attendees of these events began to ask us to provide custom apparel including designs to promote their business and special events.

Word began to spread around that Thread Ready was the go-to company for custom apparel for businesses. Thread Ready rapidly grew beyond the capabilities of their mobile showroom.

Opening our storefront allowed more people to see our process, our design capabilities, and the quality of our work. It also showed the consumer market that we could do anything from a single t-shirt for a special gift to 100’s of shirts for a large event or business.

Today, Thread Ready offers a wide variety of apparel and accessory decoration processes including embroidery, screen printing, direct-to-garment printing (DTG), direct-to-film (DTF) and more.
