On the Special Occassion of Ramadan there are special offers provided by One Stop tailors.
One Stop tailors, Amrik Singh(Owner of One Stop Tailors) and Mandeep Kaur (Team member), worked all hours, day and night to stitch together around 400 pieces including shirts, trousers and shorts. Once the final stitch was sewn the skilled tradesmen delivered the kit, the Australia team were so happy with the results they penned a warm letter to the sewing dream team thanking them for their “amazing tailoring service”. Amrik Singh and Mandeep have now had the letter framed and put it on proudly on display in their small shop.
Shop owner Amrik, opened his store in One Stop Shopping Centre 18 months ago, received a contact from sports marketer Shane Redenbach who co-ordinates Australian sports teams uniforms. The business boss said: “Shane approached other tailors who could not offer proper prices and he then asked me.
“In 10 minutes I explained everything and he was worried as he only had three days. I accepted the job and put a sign outside the store putting all customers on hold as my responsibility was him.
“Customers thankfully were not angry and willing to compromise. We worked night and day. It was a big target and only three days.”
Amrik and Mandeep got together other members to help tailor up to 400 pieces with materials provided by Shane. They produced 200 tops, 30 trousers, 50 shorts, 50-60 T-shirts and 15 shorts for para-athletes. Each piece was a bold teal colour with yellow strips and the Australian Commonwealth Games Team logo.
