Mr. B's Tees 

Mr. B’s Tees was started in September of 2008 after Brenda had lost her job and needed to find work. Paul, being an art teacher for 30 years at Ravenna High School, had dabbled in screen printing and had done various jobs for the local sports teams over the years. They started out downtown in the space above Petals and Pictures. They moved a larger space on Hwy 2, southwest of Ravenna, in the Fred Matejka building in 2010. They have been Ravenna Chamber members since their inception.

 

Paul and Brenda were the main workers. They also employed freelance artists to help with the designs, as well has a small number of employees to help out on big jobs. When Paul passed in 2015, Brenda took over the business on her own quickly learning how to work with designs and production. Now Brenda’s husband, Brent, has become active in the business as well. Over the years they have done jobs as small as one t-shirt to as many as 1,500 for Family Physical Therapy. Their favorite jobs are the ones that support the Ravenna Community. No job is too big or too small. They have done work for many schools across the state of Nebraska, from Class A to Class D.  As well as small and large businesses, extending from Omaha to North Platte. They even have done thousands of shirts for the Nebraska State Fair.

 

Their business grew and expanded. They now have automatic machines for screen printing, offer embroidery, and sublimated items. They now offer online orders and shipping across the nation!
