OUR STORY

It Started With a Football League

In the Fall of 2015, Candis Kelly found herself in need of custom-printed jerseys for her son's football league.  As a fairly new resident in Gwinnett County, it became apparent the demand for custom jerseys for parents were not available.  Therefore, Candis would drive miles to Dekalb County to purchase custom jerseys for herself and other parents of the football team.  

An Alternate Solution

Over the next 3 years, with driving back and forth for new T-shirts/jerseys, Candis noticed the requirements seemed simple: the T-shirts/jerseys should be high quality, attractive looking, and affordable.  Candis decided to save up enough money to put her plans into action, and CK Custom Designs, LLC was created. 

Candis's plans were modest: she would customize shirts/jerseys and sell them to the parents of the Football League relying on the company's quality to spread the word. But just after a few months its formation, word of CK Custom Designs's quality spread beyond just the Football League.  As orders from farther and farther away places started coming in, Candis realized that CK Custom Designs could be more than a parent project: it could become a real business.
