Customer Spotlight: Lubanzi Wines

Why were you shopping for tees?For years we kept getting asked by friends, family and customers in the US to produce some merchandise and finally decided to make them happy and put our name on something besides a bottle of wine! What did your customers or team members think of their tees?We've made about 5 or 6 different shirts over the years, as we like to keep things fresh, and I don't think I've seen some of my friends & family in anything but one of them since. What's your favorite GOEX garment?Eco tri-blend tees - we're all about soft shirts Anything else you'd like to share?While we may be a South African wine co., I grew up in Kansas City and have known the Global Orphan Project since I was a kid. It's amazing to be able to do business with them and stay connected to an organization back home.
