BREXIT Price Increase will not effect us.

14/01/2019

For many years Vij Brothers have remained committed to maintaining and offering very reasonable prices on what are undoubtedly the highest quality Schoolwear and Workwear. We do everything we can to bring you great service in accordance with our work values. Some things are however out of our control. For example, a number of our suppliers have recently announced increases in their prices up to 18% what we are advised have been as a direct consequence of Brexit with some prices predicted to rise even further.

In light of these announcements, we have had multiple meetings with our Suppliers such as Rowlinson Knitwear Ltd who are highly regarded as one of the best manufacturers in the Schoolwear and Corporatewear Industry to see what can be done whereby we are able to maintain the same level of quality but without an influx in prices. We have done the same with the likes of Trutex & Winterbottom Schoolwear whose products we shall continue to provide.

You may also be aware that we are this year introducing our new Tru Schoolwear Blazers in Store (Article dated 22/11/2018) in addition to our Tru Schoolwear Tartan Skirts which have already been a great success for our Customers and phenomenal feedback received from the Schools directly. On this front, we remain committed to keeping in stock the Tartan material in our Manchester based Warehouse where we can manufacture Tartan Skirts within 72hours all to meet ongoing customer demand.

At this point, you are most likely thinking where is the price influx announcement?

We are in fact happy to announce that following our successful meetings with our manufacturers and import/export providers, we are NOT increasing our prices for anything despite the Brexit market changes. We will continue to make this effort for our Customers and directly with the Schools to keep the Uniforms of great quality and most importantly affordable. This is after all what we strive to achieve for our valued customers.

If you have any further questions whether as a parent/customer/School associate please do not hesitate to contact us via email on rohit@vijschoolwear.co.uk.

We trust that you are equally as pleased as we are with this announcement.

Another Price Increase will not effect as much!

11/10/19

Due to Brexit our suppliers and of course ourselves are dealing with one of the factors which is the £/$ exchange rate which as a result of the uncertainty surrounding Brexit, as you all are aware everything thing in retail and even food retailers the prices will increase after 31st Oct 2019, So in Schoolwear world we are hearing there is possible price increase between 3.5% – 8% we have had important meetings with our suppliers including with Company Directors, as you know we like to keep the prices same as this year, we had very successful meetings where have agreed to absorb the price increase in Rowlinson Brand , there will be slight increase for our direct to school supply and to direct Businesses which we cover from Accrington to London, but for our customers coming in store there will be no increase.

To save the increase cost, we have joined with Payment Sense for taking payment via card, which will play great part with our Prices.

Rowlinson (Woodbank) is very special to us, all the schools we have is approx 96% by Rowlinson brand with their faulty return is at the ration of 0.02% which is amazing, we will always work closely with them for the best.

14/10/19 – Winterbottom Shirts and Blouses Price will not be increasing with us, we will continue to serve Winterbottom Shirts & Blouses at the same Prices after our successful meeting at the Schoolwear show in Birmingham. Our Winterbottom Shirts/Blouses will become NON-IRON from April 2020 the quality of the shirts are the best in School Wear Industry without doubt. Staying with Winterbottom there will be no increase on our Boys Slim Trousers, these trousers is always in demand, and we kept great big stock in last term, and will again have plenty for the Summer 2020 at the same prices.

We still have on going talks going on with many other brands and hopefully we can get the best for you and for us.
