Ideal for businesses producing workwear, sports kits, and promotional apparel, our solutions combine speed (up to 1,200 stitches per minute) with precision for complex designs.

The worse company to buy from, Roy the director couldnt careless and is very rude. After experiencing a very unpleasant phone call where he didnt bother offer to help my situation in no way shape or form. Aftercare support is a shambles! Stay clear from this horrendous company!

I am not a customer my partner is currently a customer of theirs. I advise anyone that has money to spend on setting up a business, to not spend it here and go elsewhere. They do sell great products, if they work properly to begin with, but if you ever encounter problems after purchase and in need of aftercare, then please stay away, because they won't help unless you spend more to rectify the problem. I can assure anyone this in turn will be detrimental and will cost your own company thousands in losses because you have equipment that has broken down before you've even started. In my personal

We have been using YES since 2009, we have bought machines through them and sold machines through them. I still have a straight six head embroidery machine that we bought with the company in 2009 and it has probably cost me 800.00 in the past 12 years. I think that's a bargain, I do carry out my own servicing, and for anything major, I always have the YES technical team to help and advise where necessary. I wouldn't go anywhere else now, because I have a good working relationship with them, and as a family owned and run company like ourselves, I know they will do their best for us.
