About colored promotional cotton tote pricing

Priced per unit; vendors typically quote against a primary quantity.

Why does embroidery cost more than printing?

Embroidery is priced on stitch count, so a detailed logo runs higher than a screen print. A simplified mark for embroidery often closes the gap.

Are setup fees per order?

Setup should be once per logo and decoration method. Reordering identical art should not trigger a new setup charge.
