A family business built
on quality and care
They say having children changes one’s priorities in life. This was the case with Bill and Lynn Creek, who started their family printing business from their home in Berowra shortly after their youngest daughter, Chey, was born in 1987.
Bill left his teaching role and beloved students at Turramurra High. His unique understanding of the pressures and demands on teachers and organisers within schools and sporting clubs has shaped Crocodile Creek Shirts buyer’s journey, making the process simple.
The couple had a dream to bring joy to the lives of school-aged kids across Australia through print and design, creating pathways for schools to effortlessly facilitate that while engaging with Australian made and high quality products.
In doing so, Crocodile Creek Shirts has thrived over the decades. They continue to be a trusted name for schools and clubs across Australia. With a penchant for quality, the longevity of the business speaks as a testament to the product, consistency and superior service.
It doesn’t happen without heart. Inspired by the remarkable story of the Salvation Army Officer who began SAO biscuits and pledged 10% of profits to charity, Crocodile Creek has – from the beginning – donated $1 from every shirt sold to not-for-profit organisations. Over the years, this has become a sizeable contribution that the team is very proud of, and they have since been able to double the amount pledged to $2 per shirt.
The team’s chief printer, Hugh, has been a stalwart in the business since 1990. His commitment to quality and care in printing our garments is evident in every order that is despatched.Â
As for other team members, Chey, who grew up with the aroma of ink and boxes of carefully packaged orders, has been at the helm of the business since 2017 alongside her husband, Ryan. It’s a nod to the same vibrant service of care and quality, set to last long into the future.
Thank you to all of our customers who have supported us over the years, and also to all the students that have proudly worn their class shirts. It has been a pleasure to supply them. For more on the quality service that we offer, please view the words from our customers. We look forward to providing you with the same efficient service, on time and to budget.
