What makes Merch Unlimited embroidery different?
The short answer is in the name. Customers who find us searching for embroidery unlimited get exactly that: embroidery without the usual ceilings.
- Unlimited order range. Low minimums mean we will stitch a single jacket, and our multi-head commercial machines keep quality consistent across hundreds of pieces. One polo or a full corporate uniform program, the process is the same.
- A thread wall that feels unlimited. Choose from hundreds of polyester and rayon thread colors, plus specialty options like metallic and glow-in-the-dark threads and foam-backed 3D puff for hats.
- Unlimited placements. Left chest, full back, sleeves, collars, or a custom position. We embroider exactly where your design needs to be.
Every project starts with expert digitization. Our in-house digitizers convert your artwork into an optimized stitch file, tuned for the fabric, thread count, and placement, so lines stay crisp and colors stay bold. You review a digital mockup and stitch sample before production begins. Established in 1987, we have built our reputation on work that lasts: embroidery does not crack, fade, or peel. It gets better with age.

How much does custom embroidery cost in Garner and Raleigh?
Embroidery pricing depends on stitch count, which is driven by the size and detail of your design, plus the number of thread colors, the garment you choose, and your quantity. Because every logo digitizes differently, we quote each project individually, and the quote is always free.
What we can show you is how we price against the market. The comparison on our homepage puts a G5000 shirt at $11.15 from Merch Unlimited versus $14.50 to $15.45 at competitors, and we bring that same pricing approach to embroidery. If you are weighing decoration methods on budget, custom screen printing is usually the value pick for large t-shirt runs, and our guide to screen printing vs embroidery breaks down when each one wins.
Can one shop handle embroidery, screen printing, and DTF?
Yes. Merch Unlimited runs embroidery, screen printing, DTF transfers, and design services under one roof, so you are not juggling vendors when an order mixes embroidered polos with printed tees. Our team will tell you straight which method fits each piece: embroidery for the premium, professional finish on polos, jackets, hats, and corporate apparel, and printing for bold graphics on big shirt runs.
If you are local, our Garner and Raleigh custom apparel hub covers everything we offer in one place.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does custom embroidery cost?
Embroidery pricing depends on the size and complexity of your design, the number of thread colors, the garment you choose, and your order quantity, since larger designs require more stitches and machine time. Our in-house digitizers convert your artwork into an optimized stitch file as part of the process, and you approve a proof before production begins. For exact pricing on your project, request a free quote and our team will break it all down for you.
What is the minimum order for embroidery?
Merch Unlimited offers low minimums on custom embroidery, and we handle everything from single pieces to bulk orders. That makes embroidery practical for small teams, new businesses, and one-off gifts as well as full corporate uniform programs. Our multi-head machines keep quality consistent whether you order a handful of polos or hundreds of jackets. Tell us what you need and how many, and we will send over a free quote that fits your quantity.
Do I need to digitize my logo before ordering embroidery?
No, you do not need a digitized file before you order. Send us your artwork in any format and our in-house digitizers will convert it into an optimized stitch file, adjusting thread paths and densities for your chosen garment and placement. You then review a digital mockup and stitch sample and approve it before production begins, so your logo stitches out with clean lines the first time.
Is embroidery better than screen printing?
It depends on the garment and the look you want. Embroidery delivers a premium, professional finish that is ideal for polos, jackets, hats, and corporate apparel, and it will not crack, peel, or fade the way printed designs can. Screen printing is usually the better fit for large t-shirt runs and bold, vibrant graphics. Merch Unlimited offers both services, so our team can recommend the right method for your project.
Where can I get custom embroidery near Raleigh, NC?
Merch Unlimited provides custom embroidery from our shop at 471 Cleveland Crossing Drive in Garner, North Carolina, just south of Raleigh. We embroider corporate apparel, custom hats, polos, jackets, and workwear for businesses, sports teams, and schools across North Carolina. Reach us Monday through Friday, 9am to 5pm ET, call 910-892-9337, or request a free quote online to get your project started.
What items can you embroider?
We embroider hats, polos, dress shirts, jackets, outerwear, bags, and workwear, along with corporate apparel for businesses, sports teams, and schools. Placement is flexible too: left chest, full back, sleeves, collars, or a custom position. If you are not sure a garment will stitch well, send it over and our team will assess it for free.
What affects the quality of an embroidered logo?
Digitizing matters most. The same logo can stitch out crisp or muddy depending on how the stitch file sets thread paths and densities for your fabric and placement, which is why we digitize in-house. Thread choice, design size, and garment material also play a role, and you approve a stitch sample before we run production.
