Does your motorcycle club give out patches to its officers or as prizes for specific events? Maybe the club buys every member a member's patch or has patches created that feature the club's name or home town. Either way, if your club often buys iron on patches, then you need to take a good look at a wholesale program. Purchasing wholesale patches is a great way to save money and stock up on patches so that you're not continuously ordering more when you need them.
What exactly is a wholesale program? If you're going to be ordering a large number of the same patch, such as a 'member' patch or patches for your different officers, you may qualify for a wholesale discount. Buying in bulk lets you save a little bit of money on each patch, too, because the more you buy, the more of a discount you get. This also means that your club will have a supply of these embroidered patches and won't need to order more every year.
There are a few restrictions with purchasing wholesale patches. First, there's usually a minimum number of patches you have to buy, so if you don't need 50 or 100 of the same patch, you may want to buy patches individually. Second, some distributors won't offer wholesale patches to individuals, only retailers or clubs that have been officially chartered. However, that's not the case with The Cheap Place, which offers wholesale discounts to anyone with an account. The Cheap Place does not require a minimum quantity of patches but does have a minimum of $100 per wholesale order.
Buying wholesale patches can make things easier for your club, and it can save you money!
