Follow on Google News | Texarkana, TX retailer Uniform Plus launches online storeUniforms Plus, a 17-year-old Texarkana-based uniform retailer, has opened a new web store.
By: UniformMarket Uniforms Plus was founded in 1994 by Suzanne Duck, who had been a nurse for almost 20 years when she decided to break into the medical apparel business. At the time, she says, “there were only two uniform shops in town, both of which were operated by ladies who only carried white uniforms.” Suzanne saw a growing demand for more variety and color in medical uniforms and scrubs. She, along with her daughter (also a nurse) opened Uniforms Plus. For six years, Suzanne managed the store while also working full-time as ICU Director at St. Michael Hospital in Texarkana. In 2000, Suzanne left her full-time position at the hospital to focus solely on the store. As a nurse, Suzanne has always had her finger on the pulse of the medical industry, and keeps up with medical apparel trends and fabric technologies. The Uniforms Plus retail store features popular brands like Koi, Landau, Peaches, Barco, Nurse Mates, and White Swan. Suzanne says that over the years, some hospitals have started to enforce stricter dress codes and disallow scrub prints. She has responded to these changes by keeping a wide variety of solid scrubs in stock. Suzanne isn’t bothered or discouraged by these changes, however. She looks forward to the challenges that she faces. “I feel very fortunate to have chosen this path for my career,” she says. For Suzanne, launching an eCommerce website was just another way for her to keep up with the demands of an ever-changing and increasingly technological industry.
