Sweet-Orr’s core promise for 150 years has been to deliver workwear that will never let you down. This has meant forming relationships with suppliers who can help us deliver workwear that is superior to the rest.

We’ve consistently managed supplier relationships for decades, forged new ones, and re-established old ones. After all, success in any business can not take place in a vacuum. Sweet-Orr’s plan for the future is ambitious and bold. While others would be worried about what’s to come, we’re granted a sense of confidence because of the suppliers we’ve collaborated with today.
