A Dream Shop Opportunity for Businesses & Schools
The Stahl family began decorating over 90 years ago in their small Detroit garage. With hard work, commitment, and a dream, our business was born. Today, STAHLS’ is still family-owned and operated, and we’re still looking to grow our family of heat printing entrepreneurs by helping make dreams come true. The Stahl Family Scholarship provides aspiring decorators an opportunity to achieve success.
Throughout 2023 we are awarding 8 total scholarships. Each quarter, we’ll select two lucky winners: one small business and one school. Winners will receive our exclusive Dream Shop Package featuring two top selling Hotronix® heat presses, essential heat printing accessories, and on-site equipment training with STAHLS’ experts.
We’re looking for businesses ready to take their decoration ability to the next level and schools that foster entrepreneurial development among students. The Stahl Family is ready to help you fulfill your dreams. Apply for your chance to win!
