What is a bulk order discount on workwear?

A bulk order discount reduces the cost per item when ordering workwear. At SP Workwear, our bulk pricing is based on your total spend over a rolling 12-month period, rather than a single large order. This means repeat and top-up orders also contribute towards better pricing.

Do I need to place one large order to get bulk pricing?

No. Our bulk workwear discounts don’t rely on one-off large orders. Instead, pricing improves as your overall spend builds across multiple orders within a rolling 12-month period. This allows you to order what you need, when you need it.

How does the rolling 12-month spend-based discount work?

We calculate bulk discounts by looking back over your previous 12 months of spend with us at any point in time. Each order within that period contributes towards your pricing band, keeping discounts fair and reflective of your current needs.

Do small top-up orders count towards bulk discounts?

Yes. Replacement items, new starter clothing and smaller top-up orders all count towards your bulk pricing. You don’t lose out on discounts just because an order is small.

Is spend-based bulk pricing better for growing teams?

Yes. Spend-based bulk pricing is ideal for growing teams who place multiple orders across the year. It allows flexible ordering while still benefiting from fairer pricing over time.

Does bulk pricing apply to embroidered and printed workwear?

Yes. Our bulk discounts apply across both embroidered and printed workwear, including uniforms for teams of all sizes. We’ll always apply the best available pricing based on your current spend level. Although our workwear bundles do not apply to the discount brackets as they are already so heavily discounted, the value does count towards your overall spend. So ordering bundles will help get you to the next discount bracket on other items

Is there a contract or minimum spend to access bulk discounts?

No. There’s no contract, no lock-in and no minimum commitment. Your pricing simply improves naturally as you continue ordering with us over a rolling 12-month period.

Do workwear bundles qualify for bulk order discounts?

Workwear bundles already include built-in package savings, so additional bulk order discounts don’t apply directly to the bundle price. However, any spend on workwear bundles still counts towards your rolling 12-month spend, helping improve pricing on future non-bundle orders such as top-ups, replacements or new starter items. This ensures bundle pricing stays competitive while still rewarding ongoing orders.

Bulk order discounts

Discounts based on what you spend, not one big order

Most businesses don’t buy all their workwear in one go. So rather than quantity breaks on a single order, our discounts are based on what you spend with us over a rolling 12 months. Top-ups, new starters and replacements all count, and once you’ve ordered with us the website applies it for you when you log in.

How it works

Your spend builds over 12 months

Every order you place adds to your total for the last 12 months. As it grows, you move into better price bands.

Money off garments and logos

The discount applies to plain garments and to the price of each logo, from 5% at £300 up to 25% at £3,000 (ex VAT).

No pressure to over-order

Order what you need, when you need it. You don’t have to place one big order or store spare stock to get a better price.

What that looks like over a year

Most teams order in dribs and drabs: a big order to start, then new starters, replacements and the odd seasonal top-up. Here’s an example year of orders, priced two ways.

Logos: the same discount

Your logos come off by the same percentage as your garments, so a 10% level means 10% off the garments and 10% off every logo on them. If you just want the rule, that’s all you need. The table shows the exact price of each logo, per garment, at every level (ex VAT).

Price per logo, per garment, ex VAT.

Logo setup

New embroidered logos

A one-off setup charge of £17.50 ex VAT per logo position turns your logo into a stitch file. You pay it once per position on an order, however many garments carry it.

Reorders and printed logos

Reorders with the same logo have no setup charge, and printed logos have no setup charge. If your artwork needs redrawing first, we’ll tell you the cost before we do anything.

Top-ups without the penalty

New starter next month? A few replacements in the spring? We price on your spend over the year, not the size of one order, so a small top-up can carry the same discount as the big order before it. Log in with your email when you order online (no password needed) and it’s applied for you, or ask us for a quote.

Log in with the email address we already have for you and the website looks at your company’s spend with us over the last 12 months, adds what’s in your basket, and applies your discount as you shop. It shows in the basket as “Your account pricing”, and your current level is on your My Account page.

Orders from anyone at your company count towards the same total, whether they order online or through our team. The first time, we’ll ask you to confirm your email with a quick link, unless you’ve already paid for a web order with it.

New to us? Your first order’s discount is worked out on your basket total, and it builds from there.

My Account also shows your company’s invoices, open quotes and logo visuals, so you’re not digging back through emails for them.

Bundles, sale and promo items

Workwear bundles, sale items and promotional merchandise are already priced as offers, so spend discounts don’t apply to them. What you spend on them still counts towards your 12-month total.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to place one big order to get bulk pricing?

No. Your price improves as your spend builds across all your orders over a rolling 12 months.

What does “rolling 12 months” mean? Can my level go down?

We look at the last 12 months of spend. Your level goes up as soon as your spend crosses the next line, so you get the better price straight away. It only goes down at a quarterly review (1 February, 1 May, 1 August and 1 November), and if you’re close to dropping a level we’ll let you know beforehand how much keeps it. No contract and no lock-in.

Can I mix different garments?

Yes. Polos, hoodies, jackets and so on all count towards the same total.

Is there a minimum order?

No. You can order a single garment.

Do the prices include VAT?

No. All our spend levels and prices are ex VAT.

Do I have to log in to get my discount online?

To have your 12-month spend counted online, yes. Without logging in, the website prices your order on what’s in your basket. If you’d rather not order online, ask us for a quote and we’ll price it on your 12-month spend.

Do orders from my colleagues count?

Yes. Spend is counted across your whole company, so orders placed by anyone at your company count towards the same level.

What if my level looks wrong?

Get in touch and we’ll check it. Orders placed through our team are added each morning, so a big order can take a day to show.
