Brandon Gency's Company Details

University Tees began in a dorm room at Miami University in 2003. As sophomore business majors, Nick and Joe were organizing a t-shirt order for their business fraternity and after becoming frustrated with their experience, they decided there had to be a better way. So, like any good entrepreneur, they started their own company. Their vision was simple: to create the best custom apparel experience the college market had ever seen. It took a few times to get it right (ask them about their Green Beer Day t-shirt debacle), but eventually, they nailed it. Because they were students at the time, they hired other students to help with sales and graphic design. This is still the model we use today! College students working with other college students to make everyone’s wildest t-shirt dreams come true. Custom apparel is what we do, but DPCL is why we do it. University Tees exists to Develop People and Change Lives. It’s our company’s purpose, and the reason we are passionate about coming to work every day. DPCL impacts everyone – from full-time people in our headquarters and regional offices to Campus Managers across the country. In short, DPCL means that we are continuously striving to be the best version of ourselves and to help everyone around us be their best. We believe in continuous growth and lifelong learning. Team members have many opportunities to grow both personally and professionally. Every team member is given a DPCL budget to better themselves, from taking public speaking classes, to attending a leadership seminar, to hiring a personal trainer, to taking guitar lessons.
