In 1973, out of a friend’s basement in Thorold Ontario, Martin Myers founded Calhoun Creations. From his humble beginnings, custom printing t-shirts from a single screen-printing machine, Calhoun evolved over the next 42 years into licensing, sourcing and manufacturing, known today as Calhoun Inc.
In the early days, major accounts included music retailers, radio stations, and custom orders. Next, Calhoun began to manufacture clothing for colleges and universities across North America.
Since 1981 Calhoun has been located on Bunting Road the design district of St. Catharines. This facility is approximately 40,000 sq. ft., housing a cutting, sewing, design and screen-printing department. In 1985, Calhoun began exporting to retailers and corporate customers in the United States. Calhoun also maintains a 10,000 sq. ft. of warehouse space in Buffalo, NY to support its American clients.
Calhoun has always thrived on learning and innovation, constantly improving and evolving to provide the best products and service to our clients. We’re always working on new ways to deliver an even higher quality product at an even faster turnaround. Today, Calhoun not only provides custom printed t-shirts, but has become an official licensee of many world-renowned brands such as DC Comics, Game of Thrones and the NHL.
