I've been wholesaling with Macho for around 9 years. I purchased all student uniforms, sparring equipment, and all of our printed t-shirts and sweatshirts through Macho. I've spent hundreds of thousands of dollars.And then new management came in. My sense is that Macho was saved by an investment firm at the 11th hour, and they came in and do what VC firms do... screw with everything, get rid of half the staff and raise prices.Since covid Macho has consistently raised their rates. 20% and a "poor me" email from the greedy execs turned into a 50% markup that was just snuck onto each new order little by little.Now, recently the discounts I earned because of the amount I spent exclusively with Macho was removed without notice. "It's like you're double dipping".. yes, that's what happens when a single location karate school spends close to half a million dollars with your company.Screen printing went from 2.25 to 5.50 or something ridiculous, just to keep gouging life long customers. Needless to say I've already discussed the situation with Century and they're working hard to get us set up with all custom and wholesale orders..I did a cost comparison while working with Century... I could have ordered the 78 uniforms + 15 sparring bags +$988.00 worth of sparring equipment and still saved $500.This review is not a reflection on the staff. Staff here have always been great, and it's why I used Macho for so long, despite price hikes. But this BS is enough. Taking away my discounts without warning was the last straw. Management will likely turn this around and blame their staff, but they're are the ones that made this decision... have made every decision they can to hurt the brand for the sake of greed and profit.

Kicked all the small schools out of wholesale based on the COVID pandemic numbers.

I am also one of the victims of Macho cutting off the small businesses by using 2020 revenue to strip is of our wholesale accounts. You guys are disgusting.

Student uniforms are nice and made of quality materials. Customer service is the best in the industry. Mrs Valerie has been our sales associate for years and is always eager and ready to help us with our orders.
