Xpress Tees is a Gold Coast embroidery company with two walk-in stores, in Ashmore and Surfers Paradise, and every order is stitched in house rather than sent out to a third party, so quality control and turnaround stay in our hands from first proof to finished garment. It’s the same in-house setup behind our custom t-shirt printing and screen printing work on the Gold Coast.
Embroidery stitches your logo or design directly into the fabric with needle and thread, rather than printing ink onto the surface. That raised, stitched finish is what gives embroidered logos their premium look and their durability, holding up to years of washing and daily wear far better than a printed logo does.
It is the method we reach for most often on polos, jackets, caps and corporate uniforms, where a small, sharp logo needs to survive the wash every week for years. Before stitching, your logo is digitised into a stitch file, a one-off setup step, then that file is reused for every item in the order, and most jobs are ready within our standard 7 to 10 day turnaround.
We embroider and deliver for customers right across the Gold Coast, from Surfers Paradise and Broadbeach down to Burleigh Heads and Coolangatta, and out to Nerang, Coomera, Helensvale, Pacific Pines and Pimpama, whether you can get into one of our stores or you would rather order online. See our full list of areas we serve for the suburb closest to you. Send us your logo and we will get it digitised and ready to stitch.
Best Custom Embroidery on the Gold Coast
Custom Embroidery for Businesses, Teams & Uniforms
Whatever the job is, we treat it the same way: talk through what you need, confirm the garment and thread colours, digitise your logo, and send you a proof before anything goes on the machine, so there are no surprises when the order arrives.
Businesses use us for staff uniforms and polos, real estate and hospitality teams for branded shirts and aprons, and trades for embroidered workwear that needs to look sharp for years, not just the first few washes. Sports clubs and school teams use us for embroidered caps, jackets and polos where the badge needs to survive a full season of training.
Send through your logo, the garment style and the quantity you need and we will quote it. If you already have blank garments on hand, our bring your own apparel service covers stitching only. Orders over $80 ship free, and most jobs are turned around in 7 to 10 days, with rush options available if you let us know your deadline up front.
Call now for a free quote, or drop into our Ashmore or Surfers Paradise store with your logo and we will talk you through pricing on the spot.

What We Embroider
Corporate & Uniform Embroidery
Embroidery is usually the right call for staff uniforms, because the same logo needs to sit cleanly on every polo or shirt and survive a wash cycle every week for years, not just look good on day one. Once your logo is digitised, we keep that stitch file on hand, so reordering more shirts later for a new hire matches exactly.
We work from your existing logo files, or can help clean up or recreate a logo that is not embroidery ready. Common jobs include branded polos for offices, real estate and hospitality teams, and embroidered workwear for trades.
Team & Club Embroidery
Sports clubs and school groups use us for embroidered caps, jackets and polos, usually with a club or school badge, because a stitched badge holds its shape and colour through a full season of training, games and washing in a way a printed badge on a cap will not.
Send through your badge or logo and the quantity you need and we will put together a quote. If you need a mix, some items embroidered and others printed, for example embroidered polos alongside printed event tees, we can run both out of the same order.
Embroidery vs Screen Printing: Which Should You Choose?
Embroidery and screen printing both end up as a logo on your garment, but they suit different jobs. Embroidery stitches the design in, giving it a raised, textured, premium finish that holds up to years of washing, which is why it is usually our recommendation for polos, jackets, caps and any uniform that gets worn and washed week after week. It works best on smaller, simpler logos, since stitch count (and therefore price) climbs with detail rather than staying flat the way print colours can.
Screen printing pushes ink through a mesh screen instead, which suits larger, more detailed or full colour designs, and gets noticeably cheaper per shirt the bigger the run, making it the better fit for event tees, team game-day shirts and large bulk orders where embroidery’s per-item cost would add up fast.
If you are not sure which one your job needs, send it through and we will tell you honestly which method will look better and cost less for what you are after, rather than defaulting to whichever is easier for us.

Why Choose Xpress Tees for Embroidery
We stitch every job in house at our own Gold Coast workshop rather than sending it out to a third party, so we control quality and turnaround from the first proof to the finished garment. Shipping is free over $80, and most jobs are ready within 7 to 10 days. Send us your logo and we will get it digitised and ready to stitch. With two stores on the Gold Coast, in Ashmore and Surfers Paradise, you can talk to us in person about your order, see thread and garment samples, and pick up locally instead of waiting on a courier.
Common Questions
How much does embroidery cost on the Gold Coast?
Cost depends on how big and detailed your logo is (more stitches costs more), how many garments you need, and a one-off digitising fee to turn your logo into a stitch file the first time you order it. That file is kept on hand for reorders, so a second order of the same logo skips that setup cost. The only way to get an accurate number is to send us your logo, the garment style and the quantity, since a small single-colour logo on twenty polos costs quite differently to a large detailed badge on a hundred jackets. Get in touch for a free, no-obligation quote.
Is there a minimum order for embroidery?
There is no set minimum at either of our Gold Coast stores, though a single item carries the full one-off digitising cost on its own, so the price per piece is highest on very small orders and comes down as the quantity goes up. If you only need one or two items, ask us for the most cost-effective option, we will tell you honestly rather than just quoting the standard rate.
How long does an embroidery order take?
Most embroidery orders are ready within our standard 7 to 10 day turnaround from when the design is approved, though this can vary with order size and how busy the queue is. If you have a fixed deadline, a new-hire start date or a season start, let us know when you place the order and we will tell you upfront whether it is achievable, and flag it immediately if it is not, rather than promising a date we cannot hit.
