In this current economic climate, Vals Customized Actionwear prides itself in being able to offer quality sportswear without breaking the budget and contributes regularly to charity sports events, both monetarily and with product.
ValsCustomized.com was founded in 1990 and is the brain child of “momtrepreneur†Valerie Sullivan, or Val, as she known by her friends. She started this exciting company in her basement 19 years ago while she was working at Bell Canada in customer service. Her active mind and a love of sewing prompted Val to start making swimsuits for her daughter Rachel and her friends on the swimming team. It wasn’t long before Val’s phone was ringing off the hook with people requesting her to make sportswear to sell at fundraisers, rowing regattas and for swim, skating and gymnastics teams. As word of mouth and referrals grew, Val created the company Vals Customized Actionwear to keep up with the demand and eventually had to hire employees and move into a factory.
“Crazy Shorts,†the flagship product of the company, actually originated from the left- over material from gymnastic leotards and skating clothing. “At first, we weren’t sure if they’d sell, but it was a smashing success when they sold out,†Mrs Sullivan explains “I named them ‘Crazy Shorts’ because as soon as we started selling them, all the teenage boys and girls went crazy for them. Parents could give them to their kids who really liked wearing them at their sports tournaments There was nothing else in the market that even compared to their popularity.â€
This has been a milestone year for Vals Customized, as they have doubled in staff and continue to grow by offering functional sports team wear. Driven by her passion to provide not only the best product but something that adds excitement and fun, Mrs Sullivan takes on a hands-on approach and still enjoys sewing the clothes herself. She stays grounded in her roots of a family-owned business and intends to keep it that way. She now employs her daughter Rachel as the office manager as well as Mike, her husband who is the production manager. . “I’m proud to say that my products are made in my own factories in Ontario rather than offshore. We have the best quality, selection and price. Quite a few of our wholesale customers have purchased other spandex shorts, but tell us that our customer service/quality/selection/delivery are superior.â€
