GoBoxAd Food Packaging — FAQs Edition
Branded T-shirts aren’t just uniforms — they’re walking advertisements.
They tell your story, build team spirit, and make your staff look professional and approachable.
Whether you’re launching your first restaurant or running a busy café, here’s everything you’ve ever wanted to know about custom printed T-shirts, answered by the experts at GoBoxAd.
❓ 1. Why should a restaurant or café invest in custom printed T-shirts?
Because first impressions matter.
Your staff’s appearance sets the tone for your brand — whether customers walk in for dine-in service or pick up takeout.
Custom T-shirts:
-
Create a professional and cohesive team look.
-
Help customers easily identify staff.
-
Reinforce your brand identity with every interaction.
-
Double as marketing tools when worn outside of work.
“A T-shirt is more than fabric — it’s a symbol of your brand culture.”
âť“ 2. What type of businesses benefit most from custom T-shirts?
Nearly every food business can benefit, but especially:
-
Restaurants, cafés, and dessert shops
-
Food trucks and catering companies
-
Juice bars and bubble tea shops
-
Bakeries and coffee roasters
-
Pop-up stalls and festivals
Custom printed apparel works anywhere your staff interacts with customers. It’s one of the easiest ways to build recognition and trust.
âť“ 3. What are the most popular T-shirt materials for restaurant uniforms?
At GoBoxAd, we offer several high-quality fabric options to suit different environments:
| Material Type | Best For | Features |
|---|---|---|
| 100% Cotton | Casual cafés, bakeries | Soft, breathable, natural comfort |
| Cotton-Poly Blend | Restaurants with long shifts | Lightweight, wrinkle-resistant |
| Tri-Blend (Cotton, Poly, Rayon) | Trendy, modern brands | Ultra-soft with premium feel |
| Performance Fabric | Kitchens and outdoor staff | Moisture-wicking, quick-dry, durable |
Pro Tip: Cotton-poly blends are the sweet spot — they balance comfort and longevity for daily wear.
❓ 4. What’s the difference between screen printing and digital printing?
Both produce professional results — the choice depends on your design and quantity.
| Printing Type | Best For | Advantages |
|---|---|---|
| Screen Printing | Bulk orders with simple designs | Vivid colors, durable, cost-effective at scale |
| Digital Printing (DTG) | Small runs or complex designs | Full-color detail, no setup cost, fast turnaround |
GoBoxAd offers both options. If you’re unsure which suits your needs, our team can recommend the best method based on your artwork and budget.
âť“ 5. How many colors can I print on my T-shirts?
You can print as few or as many colors as you like!
Screen printing works best for up to 4–5 solid colors, while digital printing can handle unlimited shades and gradients — perfect for full-color logos or photos.
Want something eye-catching? Try white ink on black fabric or metallic foil prints for special events.
❓ 6. Can I order small quantities for my café or small team?
Absolutely.
At GoBoxAd, we specialize in serving small and medium-sized businesses.
We offer low minimum orders — ideal for cafés, start-ups, and restaurants testing new designs or uniforms.
“You don’t need to order 500 shirts to look like a big brand.”
âť“ 7. Do you offer multiple sizes and colors?
Yes!
Our custom printed T-shirts are available in sizes from S to 5XL and come in 16 color options, from classic black and white to trendy shades like forest green, maroon, and sand beige.
We can help you match your T-shirt color to your brand palette for a consistent look across all staff apparel.
