Forest Uniform is the predominant supplier of high-end uniforms to hotels and luxury residential buildings in New York City. Founded in 1986, Forest Uniform is unique in the career apparel industry in that it is vertically integrated. By taking this unusual approach, the company is able to provide clients with special-order, custom-made uniforms for those who serve guests and the most prominent residents of the city. Being vertically integrated means Forest Uniform can take an order for a uniform, measure the wearer, and begin the manufacturing of the garment immediately. The company keeps a large selection of fabrics in inventory, from 100% cotton to exotic materials which are rarely used in uniforms. Each garment is tailored to its wearer, which creates a better-fitting, better-looking uniform, ideal for concierges and doormen for discriminating establishments.
