In this episode of The Uniformer, Rick Levine talks with David Price, President and CEO of SoCal Global Trading, about building a more flexible, resilient global supply chain for uniforms, corporate apparel, and related products.
David explains why sourcing decisions increasingly depend on total landed cost, tariff exposure, compliance, speed, and reliable backup production locations. He shares how dedicated customer teams coordinate product development, manufacturing, quality assurance, and brand protection across a global factory network.
The conversation also explores sustainability and CiCLO technology, the growing demand for stretch and comfort in healthcare and workwear, and the practical advantages of consolidated shipping, warehousing, and fulfillment. It is a candid look at how long-term partnerships and careful planning help uniform companies navigate an unpredictable sourcing environment.
