MAULDIN, S.C.—Aprons Etc. celebrates its 25th anniversary serving as an industry advertising-specialty manufacturer and import supplier of corporate logo promotional products, including: aprons, smocks, vests, bandannas, disposable accessories and fleeceⁱ blankets.

 Aprons Etc.’s parent company, Marketing Resource Group Inc., was established in 1985 by Jeff and Lucy Hoffman in Greenville, SC. as a textile manufacturer. The original company marketed almost exclusively to the retail trade with a product line of aprons and kitchen textiles. Aprons Etc. started contract screen printing shortly thereafter and moved into the promotional-product industry, imprinting corporate logos sold exclusively through its network of ad specialty distributors.
