Our owner, Joel, started out in local radio in the late 1980’s, both as an on-air personality and engineer. In the 1990’s, he opened a retail computer sales and service business, providing hardware sales along with service, repair, consulting, networking and custom programming. During that time, he even operated a dial-up internet service provider and an internet-based streaming radio station for a while.
Fast Forward to the early 2000’s, when he got involved with and then worked full-time for a local screen printing business. That was the beginning of a passion for printing that would last through to the present day for almost 25 years. During that time, he worked for a DTG (Direct-To-Garment) printing company, and then started Teescape, a Print-On-Demand fulfillment company.
Teescape has provided printing and shipping of T-shirts and other apparel for hundreds of online stores, and also provides merch for bands, artists, and even blogs and TV Shows. Our little shop in Carroll, Iowa expanded to a 30,000 square foot facility. Our central location within the United States provides excellent shipping times to a majority of the country.
Now, we’re still the same company, and with the new brand name of 30 West Printing & Apparel, we’re excited to bring that same small-town care and know-how straight to you with NO MINIMUMS and NO LIMITATIONS —whether you’re ordering one shirt or a thousand, around the corner or across the country.
With our Digital Full-Color Printing process, we can create bright, detailed designs that really last. Plus, we’ve got an amazing artist on our team with over 30 years of graphic design experience, helping us turn your ideas into seriously awesome artwork.
