One machine at a time

For around forty years the same kind of person has walked through our doors: someone with an idea, a piece of fabric, and a question about which machine can actually do the job.

We started as a small family business selling and repairing Brother and Empisal machines, and we are still that business. What has changed is reach. Today we can put the same machines, the same servicing and the same honest advice in the hands of someone in Polokwane or Cape Town as easily as someone walking into our branch.

We sell the machine. We service it when it needs it. And we teach you to use it properly, because a machine nobody understands is just an expensive table.
