Sarah Shaw has served as CEO of Specialty Sportswear, Inc. since 1975.

Specialty Sportswear was started in the basement of Sarah Shaw’s home in Reynoldsburg, OH. When Specialty Sportswear started Sarah used the embroidery to mainly make inserts for the chenille side of her business. Sarah is also more than proficient in the use of home sewing machines, chenille embroidery machines, upholstery machine, chain stitch machines, and quilting machines.

Currently, Sarah’s son, Bill, is the plant manager and takes care of the everyday operations. Bill has been with the company since 1986 and is very knowledgeable about the embroidery industry. Give him a call to see what kind of deal he can produce for your company.

After nearly 30 years in the embroidery business we have seen and adapted to the changes that have come around.
