I've had several friends in the business get their UPIC number by calling the
UPIC office and deal direct with a 'live' person.
Here's things to remember:
1) as an embroiderer, you ARE a 'supplier', because you are buying a product,
embellishing it, and selling it to businesses
2) Melco counts as a supplier
3) almost all clothing suppliers (Sanmar, Alpha, etc.) have an ASI, PPAI, or
UPIC number-and each one counts as one of YOUR suppliers.
4) if you buy or have work done by another business (i.e., had my shop do an
order of teeshirts for one of your customers) THAT business also counts as a
'supplier'
The shops I've helped were able to get a UPIC number by talking directly to
someone there, or if they had to prove they did 'sales' would run a couple of
client orders through my company. There are also many suppliers that will sell
to 'non-listed' companies and that gets you your first couple of 'orders' to
qualify.
UPIC costs nothing...and the paperwork to join isn't that bad.
