              TEE JAYS was founded in 1976
              by Terry and Jim in Alabama.
              The adventure began in a
              garage with 25 old sewing
              machines, local fabric,  and
              lots of passion. 20 years later
              TEE JAYS had 20 shipping
              and production plants in the
              Alabama area.
