Distribution
The business operates three programmes: domestic branded caps, custom overseas caps and blank caps for decoration. It runs an online store and a trade sign-up, and has regional offices in High Wycombe in the United Kingdom, Dubai and Bangalore, with websites in 11 languages besides English.
Why it matters
Flexfit is a reference product in the decorated apparel and merchandise supply chain, where many fashion and sports labels source blank caps rather than manufacture their own.
