For established print shops, decorators and apparel sales leaders.
A New Zealand apparel business with a global brand behind it
OCC Apparel was founded in 2004 by Nick Barclay, who learned how apparel should be made while working with Patagonia and became the first Australian distributor of Patagonia’s Beneficial T’s organic cotton program. Today OCC supplies and decorates ethical apparel for organisations across Australia, New Zealand and the United States, and has served New Zealand organisations directly online.
An OCC Apparel franchise lets an experienced New Zealand apparel professional or business own that model locally: certified ethical brands, local decoration, online ordering for clients and a back office that handles the admin, so you can focus on clients who reorder every season.
