    “Our whole experience was fantastic. Mary-Peyton was very responsive and accommodating to our needs. I especially love that the shirts come folded in plastic wrap and labeled with the size. Turnaround time was quick and shirts were delivered promptly. Highly recommend!” - Michelle B.

    “I am a Project Manager in South Carolina and have been working with Port City for a few months now. I have worked with many vendors and, I must say, Port City has been so wonderful to work with! I have had the pleasure of working with Mary-Peyton who is so organized, kind, helpful and checks in when she doesn't hear from me on a project. Her response time is incredible and we have even heard from our clients that they love Port City as well due to how they package their items for us! Definitely use PC; you will not be disappointed!” - Haley W.
