Why Screen Printers Are Switching to LA-Based Blank Suppliers

Why Screen Printers Are Switching to LA-Based Blank Suppliers

In the fast-paced world of custom apparel, turnaround time can make or break a printer's reputation. While many blank apparel distributors operate out of the Midwest or East Coast, a growing number of screen printers are turning to Los Angeles-based suppliers like Halo26 for one critical reason: speed.

Shipping from LA means West Coast orders arrive in 1–2 days, and even East Coast customers often receive blanks faster than expected—thanks to optimized logistics and same-day fulfillment. At Halo26, we ship all orders within 24 hours, giving you the agility to meet tight deadlines without sacrificing quality.

Our 100% combed cotton tees are pre-tested for ink adhesion, shrinkage control, and print clarity—so you spend less time troubleshooting and more time creating. Plus, with no case minimums and the ability to order by the dozen, you can stock exactly what you need, when you need it.

Unlike large national distributors that treat you as just another order number, we're built by creators, for creators. That means responsive support, real-time inventory updates, and a community that values your craft.

If you're tired of waiting 3–5 days just to start printing, it's time to consider a West Coast partner who moves at your pace.
