Tropical Enterprises Limited, Inc. is a family-owned screen-printing,
embroidery, promotional-products, and custom-apparel company based in Port
Orange, Florida. Founded in 1984 by David Summerlin, Tropical has spent
more than four decades helping businesses turn their ideas, identities, and
destinations into memorable branded merchandise. What began as a
screen-printing business in a garage has grown into a full-service
production facility with automatic screen-printing presses, commercial
embroidery capabilites, an experienced in-house art department, and the
capacity to manage everything from creative concept and garment selection
to production and delivery. Because our artwork and production are handled
in-house, we can maintain close control over quality while giving every
customer a highly personalized level of service. Tropical has developed
particular expertise in creating apparel and merchandise for restaurants,
waterfront destinations, hospitality businesses, beverage-related brands,
tourist attractions, events, and other organizations that rely on strong
visual branding. We understand that a well-designed T-shirt is more than a
uniform or souvenir—it can become one of a company’s most effective
marketing tools. When customers enjoy wearing a design long after their
visit, that merchandise continues telling the brand’s story wherever it
goes. Our greatest strength is the combination of high-end original
artwork, decades of production knowledge, and genuine personal service. We
do not simply place logos on products. We help customers develop
merchandise people will notice, purchase, wear, and remember. As we look
toward the future, our goal is to expand Tropical’s relationships within
the restaurant, foodservice, beverage, hospitality, and tourism industries
throughout Florida and beyond. We want to help more businesses create
distinctive apparel and promotional merchandise that strengthen their
identity, generate additional revenue, reward employees, support special
events, and build lasting connections with their customers. After more than
42 years, we remain committed to the principles on which Tropical was
founded: creativity, craftsmanship, reliability, and the belief that
exceptional artwork can transform an ordinary product into something people
genuinely want to own.
