Custom Embroidery Hollywood FL: Our Home Shop on Pembroke Rd

If you are searching for custom embroidery in Hollywood FL, you are searching for us. Imperial Custom Apparel is based at 6411 Pembroke Rd, Hollywood, FL 33023, in the middle of Broward County between Miami and Fort Lauderdale, and every stitch we sell is sewn here on our own multi head commercial machines. This is our home city. The beach hotels and the Broadwalk, the businesses around the Seminole Hard Rock, the restaurants and offices at Young Circle, and the neighbors in Dania Beach, Hallandale Beach, Pembroke Park and Pembroke Pines are the customers we see in person. Here is how in house embroidery works when the shop is a short drive from your door.

An embroidery shop in Hollywood, Florida, not a reseller

Plenty of websites rank for "embroidery Hollywood Florida" without a single machine in the city. They take the order and send it to a contractor. We do the opposite. Our machines, our digitizer, our thread room and our garment inventory are all at the Pembroke Rd shop, and the same team that quotes your job runs it.

Why that matters when you are local:

• You can see a sample before the full run. No minimum order means one polo or one cap first, stitched here, in your hands by appointment.
• Problems get fixed in the building. A thread color that reads too bright on a navy polo gets swapped at the machine, not emailed back and forth with a vendor.
• Mixed orders stay together. Kornit DTG, DTF transfers, screen printing and rhinestone work run under the same roof, so embroidered caps and printed tees for a Hollywood Beach event are one job.
• Pickup is simple. We are off Pembroke Rd near the Turnpike and I-95, minutes from Hollywood Boulevard, Hallandale Beach Boulevard and Sheridan Street.

Who orders custom embroidery in Hollywood FL

Hollywood is a mid sized city with a beach town on one side, a casino district in the middle and a dense grid of small business on the other. Each piece orders differently.

Hollywood Beach and the Broadwalk

Hotels, condo-hotels, beach rental operators, bike and paddleboard outfitters, the restaurants along the Broadwalk and the Intracoastal marinas. Orders tend to be staff polos in white and light colors, caps for outdoor staff, embroidered towels and robes for guest rooms, and aprons for food and beverage. Thread beats print here because everything goes through a commercial laundry and spends its life in sun and salt air.

The Seminole Hard Rock corridor

The businesses that live off the Hard Rock traffic along State Road 7 and Stirling Road: valet and parking operators, transportation companies, security firms, event staffing agencies, nightlife promoters and the hotels and restaurants that fill up on show nights. Dark polos with a clean left chest logo, structured caps with a bold front mark, and quarter zips for the air conditioned venues are the standard order.

Young Circle and downtown Hollywood

Law offices, real estate brokerages, dental and medical practices, salons, the restaurants and bars ringing ArtsPark and the shops along Hollywood Boulevard and Harrison Street. Smaller orders, 6 to 30 pieces, usually polos and quarter zips for staff plus a run of caps or totes for giveaways. This is where "no minimum" earns its keep.

The neighbors

• Dania Beach: marine businesses on the Dania Cut-Off Canal, the antique district, the airport hotels and jai-alai area, and the Design Center of the Americas showrooms.
• Hallandale Beach: Gulfstream Park, high rise condo associations and property managers, car dealerships and medical offices along Hallandale Beach Boulevard.
• Pembroke Park and Pembroke Pines: warehouses and distributors just west of us, then the schools, churches, medical practices and corporate offices of Pembroke Pines. We cover West Broward in detail in our Pembroke Pines, Miramar and Davie embroidery guide.

Searching "embroidery near me"? What to check before you order

Search results for embroidery near Hollywood mix real shops, national print on demand sites and brokers. A few questions sort them out quickly.

1. Where are the machines? Ask for the address and whether you can see a sample stitched there. If the answer is vague, the work is outsourced.
2. Is there a minimum? Many shops require 12 or 24 pieces. We require none.
3. Who owns the digitized file? Your logo has to be converted into a stitch file once, per logo per size. We keep that file on record so your reorders match the first run exactly.
4. Can they handle the whole order? If you need embroidered polos and printed tees, one shop with both in house saves you a second vendor, a second invoice and two different timelines.
5. Will they tell you no? A good shop will tell you when a logo has text too small to stitch or when a lightweight tee should be printed instead of embroidered.

What to bring to your appointment

Facility visits and sample pickup are by appointment so someone is free to walk you through the job. To make the visit useful, bring or send ahead:

• Your logo as a vector file (AI, EPS, PDF or SVG) or the highest resolution PNG you have. Our design guide explains the difference and why it matters.
• Brand colors as PMS numbers if you have them. We match polyester thread as closely as the thread range allows.
• A garment you already like, if one exists. Matching an existing polo weight or cap shape is much easier in person.
• Rough quantities and a size breakdown. Even a guess helps us quote accurately, since cost per piece falls as quantity rises.
• Any deadline tied to an event, an opening or a season start.

You will leave with a clear idea of stitch count, placement, garment options and a per project quote, and in most cases a sewn sample follows for approval.

What embroidery does well, and what it does not

We would rather tell you this before you order than after. Thread is a physical medium with real limits.

When a job lands in the right hand column, we move it to direct to garment printing or DTF in the same building, and the embroidered pieces still ship with it.

Garments Hollywood businesses actually order

The local pattern is consistent. Polos lead, caps follow, and outerwear and bags fill in around events and season changes.

• Polos: pique and performance knits in white, navy, black and heather. Pique holds stitches more cleanly than thin jersey.
• Caps: structured caps for valet, security and outdoor staff; dad hats and truckers for retail and restaurant merch.
• Quarter zips and softshells: for offices, venues and winter season on the beach.
• Aprons: bib and waist aprons for Broadwalk and Young Circle restaurants and bars.
• Scrubs and lab coats: for the medical and dental offices along Hollywood Boulevard and Sheridan Street. See embroidered scrubs and lab coats.
• Towels, robes and totes: hotel amenities and client gifts for brokerages and condo associations.

Custom embroidery Hollywood FL pricing, explained plainly

Every job is quoted per project. There is no public price list because two logos the same width can take very different amounts of machine time. The four things that set your price:

1. Stitch count. The biggest driver. A typical left chest logo runs 5,000 to 10,000 stitches. More fill, more time.
2. Garment. You can supply your own or buy through us; a performance polo and a heavy softshell sit at different price points.
3. Placement and number of locations. Left chest only costs less than left chest plus sleeve plus back yoke.
4. Quantity. Cost per piece falls as quantity rises. A single sample is welcome, and 48 pieces will price far better per unit than 6.

Digitizing is a one time step per logo per size, and the file is yours on record for every reorder. For office and team programs with ongoing reorders, our bulk and corporate orders page explains how we handle sizes, names and schedules. If you are comparing shops across the county, our Miami embroidery guide covers the same questions from the Miami-Dade side, and the embroidery service page lists everything we stitch.

Frequently asked questions

Where is the best place for custom embroidery in Hollywood FL?

Imperial Custom Apparel runs in house embroidery at 6411 Pembroke Rd, Hollywood, FL 33023, on multi head commercial machines. We are a few minutes from Hollywood Boulevard, I-95 and the Turnpike, and you can visit by appointment to see your sample stitched before the full order.

Can I pick up my embroidery order in Hollywood instead of shipping?

Yes. Local pickup at our Hollywood shop is by appointment, which is the fastest option for customers in Hollywood, Dania Beach, Hallandale Beach, Pembroke Park and Pembroke Pines. We also deliver locally and ship nationwide.

Is there a minimum order for embroidery in Hollywood Florida?

No. We have no minimum order, so you can start with one polo, one cap or one jacket. Volume pricing means your cost per piece falls as the quantity rises, so sampling first and ordering in bulk later works well.

How long does digitizing take and do I pay for it every time?

Digitizing is a one time step per logo per size. Once your stitch file is approved we keep it on record, so reorders use the same file and match the original run. You only need new digitizing if the logo or the size changes.

Can you embroider hats and polos and print t-shirts in one order?

Yes. Embroidery, Kornit DTG printing, DTF transfers, screen printing and rhinestone work all run in house at our Hollywood shop, so embroidered caps and polos plus printed tees stay one job with one pickup.
