Together, for Good.

SanMar is more than just a t-shirt company. We see t-shirts and apparel as a canvas of possibility that can be used to unite a team or tell a story. We work together to tell those stories, creating meaningful connections that elevate lives.

50 Years and Counting

SanMar was founded by Marty Lott in 1971 in Seattle. Now run by Marty's son, Jeremy, we've become the industry leader in promotional apparel, employing more than 5,000 people across the United States. Today, SanMar is still a family-owned company that lives by the same values we were founded on more than 50 years ago.

Be Nice and Tell the Truth

These refreshingly simple words form the foundation for how we work every day. They mean we treat our customers and one another with honesty and integrity.

“The departments here are all connected, like links on a chain. We all chip in and we're here to help. What you have at SanMar, you don't have anywhere else.”

Military Hiring

SanMar is committed to supporting veterans and military members who serve our nation in the transition to joining the civilian workforce. Those who serve in the military often have unique training and skills that speak to leadership, team building, organizational commitment and working in diverse cross-cultural settings.

Our Military Hiring Initiative celebrates these qualities and seeks them out. We partner with both US Military Pipeline and Hire Heroes USA, participate in military recruitment events and educate our recruiting teams about the value that military experience brings to the workplace.
