Services
A medium-sized screen printing shop next door to Philadelphia in Camden NJ, specializing in soft inks and quality customer service. What started as a hobby turned into a nationally-recognized leader in discharge printing, with customers from Hawaii to Norway. Vacord is a independent shop bringing jobs and hope to an underdeveloped city while producing quality custom apparel for your business or organization.
Not all shirts and hoodies are created equal. Some brands and styles will cost more than others, so that is a major factor in our pricing too. There are lots of higher end options that are wonderful, but plenty of lower cost choices that are still very nice and soft. You don't have to be stuck with heavy stiff shirts even if you're budget-minded!
Vacord does all custom work. These pictures are just example of our past orders, to inspire your creativity and show what we can do. A stack of lovely shirts for a startup, with their logo done with just two ink colors but in a gradient effect. This photorealistic hot air balloon print was done with discharge print, which allows us to do very fine detail.
We provide custom screen printing on shirts, hoodies, totes and more. Along with traditional inks, we use discharge and waterbased inks. Vacord Screen Printing is a custom apparel printing company shipping nationwide, which has been providing quality custom apparel since 2006, focusing on custom shirts and hoodies.

Vacord, your team is FANTASTIC to work with. Always adopting my ideas and executing - while offering advice and insight. Your organization has been so generous with your time, making sure every tee turns out just right for my clients at FitVista. Thank you! You guys are classy!

Did a great job yet again printing our conference t-shirts for Gotham Ruby Conference (GORUCO). Order was on time, service was very professional. They worked with us to nail down what we were looking for. Thanks guys!

Love this shop! I got a lot of help figuring out which shirts would work best for my logo. The shirts arrived in a timely fashion. The shirts look and feel fantastic. Thanks Vacord!

I've been using Vacord for years, and I highly recommend them. Everyone I've ever dealt with (Stuart, James, Bayla to name a few) has been super friendly and responsive to emails. Their pricing structure is super easy - you just get a price per shirt. no extra fees, and they even include delivery! (And sometimes they even throw some candy in the box for me haha.) They stand by their product, so when we've had minor issues, they've come through to fix them right away. Personally, I love the discharge ink, but we've gotten traditional ink as well. All around, just a professional and friendly company here.

These guys have it down. I've used them twice, once to make sweatshirts for work and once to make t-shirts for family, and both products were perfect. They have tons of options and are willing to work with you to make your artwork look great, not to mention they're totally reasonably priced and friendly. I'd highly recommend them as my go-to screen printer!

These guys are a great little shop. We get our company's hoodies printed here for employees, and they do good work. Pros: CHEAP. Compared to what other places cost, they are affordable. They let you print small quantities of items, which not all places do. Cons: They've had some issues getting actual clothing in stock to print on. They're actually in Camden, not Philly, but they do ship, so it's not a huge issue.

Stuart and the guys at Vacord were really great for our printing needs. They were very timely, cost effective and friendly. We came to them with a super small run of canvas bags that we needed logos printed on and they were able to accommodate us. They were very engaged with us through the process, with helpful insights into what type of printing would work best on our rather thick, waxed canvas.

Even when they finally found a printing process they liked, they brought the 1st sample in for us to review before they printed the rest of the order. Upon delivery, they not only showed up with all of our bags, but they also brought along a bunch of screen printed shirts for us to show what our logo would look like printed there as well. Overall, the Vacord team went above and beyond with their service and I would highly recommend them for your printing needs!

I have had great experience with Vacord in the past and I am still using them currently to print my apparel. Everyone at the shop is interested in your project and they will help you throughout the production process. This is a great place for printing, they get 5 stars and my recommendation!

I had my team softball jerseys printed with Vacord. They exceeded my expectations! Bradley was so wonderfully helpful right from the start. He helped me complete the design and answered all of my questions. So glad I went with Vacord and not one of the big internet companies I was originally considering. I highly recommend this business and will for sure use them in the future!

I run a local sports league and I've worked with countless screen printers and these guys are as good as it gets. The work is great quality, they're fast with getting back to you and they're super friendly. They truly seem to love what they do. I will be going back over and over again.

I ordered close to 100 shirts from Vacord with different colors, sizes, and designs, and the order came out perfect. I was extremely happy with the work that they presented, from quote to artwork to delivery. I would highly recommend their services to anyone in need of screen printed apparel or accessories.

Vacord screen printing is awesome! Turnaround is super quick and the finished product is great. Not only did the shirts I ordered come in a week after I ordered them, the customer service is phenomenal. Stuart was super helpful and easy to work with. I just sent him the.eps file and he did the rest. He calculated the cost for each shirt as well as for different types of shirts and created the proof.

Not to mention he is super quick to respond to emails and makes sure you have all the information you need. Another thing that is really great about vacord is that the set up and shipping are free! However the shirts are a little on the pricey side if you aren't ordering in bulk. I only ordered 12 shirts (which is the minimum) and they were around $13; one side one color. Although, the shirts were a very nice quality, super soft v-necks (so they were definitely worth the price).

Also the more you order the cheaper it gets, so if you are ordering a lot the price shouldn't be an issue. Overall, you can't get much better than that. Just do it, order from them. You won't be sorry.

The shirts came out EXACTLY as I had wanted - soft, with the logo inked into the shirt, rather than something that feels uncomfortable when you wear it and might peel off in the future. It was also more affordable than some of the other screen printing places I got quotes from. I will definitely be using them again.

I had a great experience with Vacord. Everyone was friendly and professional. I ordered about 15 tshirts for a bachelorette party- the guys were very helpful with the design (I know absolutely nothing about graphics) and they gave me a few options after I described what I wanted. The price was extremely reasonable, and the shirts were done ahead of schedule (plus shipping is free!). I would definitely use Vacord again.

We have had professional, quality experiences with Vacord and are thrilled to work with them again for another t-shirt order. The correspondence is timely and Stuart really knows the business. We immediately felt that we were in good hands and he guided through the simple ordering process. And the best thing is that we received our shirts when he promised them! We recommend Vacord Screenprinting to anyone looking for professional ordering that produces t-shirts people love.

The guys at Vancord were friendly, professional and willing to work with me on a tight deadline. The shirts were finished on time and looked great. I'm not sure what else I can add other than that I would order from them again.

I cannot say enough nice things about Vacord Screen Printing! They made t-shirts for my business, Circle Community Acupuncture a few months ago. Stuart and Brad provided excellent customer service. They replied to my questions almost immediately. The t-shirts they made turned out perfectly too. I couldn't believe they got them to us two weeks after we ordered them even though it was in the middle of Xmas craziness.

I will definitely work with them in the future and would refer them to anyone who wants to work with really nice people and end up with an excellent product. Thank you Vacord Screen Printing!

Vacord helped design and print T-Shirts for one of our major church events. I was referred to them after having a rough experience with another company. I was extremely pleased with their customer service. They were always quick to call me back and to update me on their progress. Also, they worked with me on making sure that my T-shirts would be on time, even on a rushed deadline AND the T-Shirts were the quality that I was hoping for. I would be very happy to use them again.

Working with Vacord was a really great process from beginning to end. They are helpful, friendly, and do great work. I am so pleased with the shirts! They look super crisp (we have a very thin lined design) and the placement is perfect. Stuart and Brad are so helpful and Vacord is a great company that delivers quality work. We will definitely reorder with them and hopefully get hoodies next time!

5 stars. Why? Because this company was 5 stars from the beginning to end. Go on their website? It's clean, polished, and easy to use. Have questions? They're response time is quick. Proofs? They can send physical or digital. We chose digital for time's sake. They offered a variety of colors styles at a pretty affordable price. Ready to order? They're on line ordering system was a breeze.

And of course, the reason I reached out in the first place. the quality of the finished product. Each shirt I've received from Vacord was EXACTLY if not MORE than what I expected. The prints are crisp. The shirts are quality. They send in a nice condensed packaged. It was literally perfect. I used to go to a local shop in Philadelphia, but their quality and timing was slipping. spending 1k+ anywhere can be daunting, but Vacord lives up to the standards I'm looking for.

And on top of that, they still are a smaller operation, still somewhat local and independent. I liked that. To sum it up, Stuart has gone above and beyond with our t-shirts. I can't recommend him and his company enough. From band shirts to family reunions, Vacord is the spot.

Adam and his team are real professionals. We had an issue/miscommunication with some items we ordered and they took great care of us and were extremely responsive. I would highly recommend them - world-class, honest business people that care about their company.

I loved working with Vacord Screen Printing. This company is truly dedicated to customer service and has the best prices I've found for bulk quantities of high quality, custom hoodies. Although I am stationed in Canada, Stuart has provided me with more than fair shipping, quick delivery and outstanding work. Working with Vacord Screen Printing was extremely easy, and I am extremely satisfied with how my order turned out.

I used Vacord twice - once for t shirts for our small business and then again for more t shirts for "perks" for our IndieGoGo campaign for our independent film. We were very happy with the shirts and many people who received them said how impressed they were with the quality. I've washed mine a million times and they still look great. Stuart was really easy to work with and always got right back to me when I had questions. I only have good things to say about Vacord.

I started my shirt run with these guys. Great samplework and great end product. I wouldn't work with anyone else for printing. Keep up the amazing work!

We had a great experience with Vacord Printing. Stuart was really easy to work with - super friendly and efficient and the tank tops he made with our custom logo turned out perfectly. Shipping was even faster than we expected. All in all we had an excellent experience and I would definitely recommend Stuart and Vacord Printing!

Seriously! Fan-freaking-tastic. So on a whim I decided to start selling t-shirts to capitalize on the greatest sorority of them all turning 100 (ooo-op to that). Designed them not having a clue has to how the t-shirt business works. I just knew that I wanted good quality shirts, not the super thick stiff ones, and I wanted feminine sweatshirts with quality print job that wasn't going to cost me an arm and a leg.

I did say I decided to do this all on a whim? With no prior experience? Stuart was extremely helpful, upfront and honest. He's very quick to respond and works one on one with you to get your project done the right way.no matter how many times you have to send the files pdf, eps, ai, psd.lol.he's very understanding with dealing with people who are less than printing savvy. I placed a relatively large order and he was able to work within the deadline that I asked for.

Great place! I worked with Stuart and Vacord on a recent order of shirts for my non-profit organization and found them to be friendly, professional, and extremely helpful with the details (which is a huge plus in my book). Pricing was excellent, too. He answered all my questions and made the whole process easy. I would definitely use Vacord again, and highly recommend them to others.
