Custom Boy Scout apparel at Bear Grips Pro Shops has no minimum order requirement. One shirt ships for the same per-unit price as fifty. There is no setup fee, no minimum quantity, and no leftover inventory to store. Small patrols, individual family purchases, late additions to a camp order, and single-item gifts for retiring Scout leaders all process the same way: order through the shop, ship in about a week, done.
Traditional custom apparel businesses built their pricing model around minimum order quantities: 24, 36, or 48 pieces per design run. That model works for large council events and uniform orders with predictable scale. It does not work for how Scout troops actually operate.
Most Scout troops have 10-30 active members. A patrol within that troop might have 6-10 Scouts. Event participation varies. Not every family commits to a camp shirt. Not every patrol member wants a custom hat. Requiring 24 pieces to place an order eliminates the entire long tail of smaller, event-specific, and individual Scout apparel needs.
The other problem with minimums: they force someone (usually the committee chair or den leader) to collect pre-orders, manage payments, hold the order until the minimum is reached, and then distribute the resulting shirts. That is a lot of volunteer time for a shirt order.
No minimum means Scout apparel ordering becomes as simple as sharing a link:
The shop stays open permanently. There is no window where orders have to be grouped. Every individual order is a real, printable order that ships independently in about one week.

Troops that generate consistent revenue from their shop typically offer 3-5 items year-round and add event-specific items (camp shirts, Jamboree shirts) seasonally. The shop becomes a passive fundraising stream that runs with minimal ongoing effort from volunteers.
