KEY TAKEAWAYS
Printeez’ business model and scale
Printeez is a print-on-demand and large-volume fulfilment company for custom apparel, serving both white-label e‑commerce brands and small businesses.
They handle significant scale: about 350,000 units/month in bulk and 57,000 on‑demand units in two weeks during peak season.
Shift from analog to digital, on-demand production
The company began with analog, water-based screen printing and still runs a large retail/bulk division.
Over the last three years they have pivoted heavily to digital and on-demand, where they see the strongest growth.
Proprietary tech and UX focus as the backbone
Printeez built a proprietary app and back‑end workflow that:
Connects to customers’ Shopify and other stores for white-label drop shipping.
Supports a front-end site for “mom-and-pop” shops to order custom apparel directly.
The back-end production workflow was relatively easy for them; the real challenge (and ongoing work) is UX/UI on the front end to keep up with creators’ expectations of frictionless, “click‑click‑done” experiences.
Use of AI and new printing tech (Matrix)
AI is enabling them to iterate and release updates much faster, though customers’ expectations are rising just as quickly.
The Matrix printing technology is seen as a major leap, allowing on-demand printing on sublimated jerseys without dye migration, and generally letting them say “yes” more often to complex decoration requests.
Strategic direction: local, on-demand, global footprint
Their strategy is to double down on e‑commerce, including live shopping and other online opportunities.
They are building a cross‑border network: already in Canada and the US (Florida), with ambitions to expand across the US and into Europe, always with the principle of locally produced, locally shipped to avoid inefficient, fragmented (“Frankenstein”) logistics.
Data as the real backbone of the business and a critical enabler for future requirements like digital product passports and certification.

In this roundtable, NedGraphics President Frank Maeder and 10Duke CEO Neil Fenton unpack one of the least glamorous - but most business critical - topics in creative production: Software licensing.
Together, they explore why legacy hardware dongles and static license keys are holding the industry back, how COVID exposed their limitations, and why user‑centric, identity‑based licensing is now essential for global, hybrid workflows. From roaming designers in New York to production teams in remote factories, they reveal how to remove friction, reduce downtime, and keep creative tools securely in the hands of the people who need them.
If you’re in fashion, design, CAD/CAM, or any creative production environment and want to future‑proof your software delivery, this discussion is packed with insight and real‑world examples.
