About The Original
Townie®
The Original
Townie® Clothing Line began
when Frank P. Joseph Jr., a long time resident of Rochester, MA felt a strong
need to express his feelings for this town and the quality of life it
represented.
"TOWNIE" seemed an appropriate term to
describe the sense of belonging and how connected he felt to this very special
place. Frank and his children proudly wore their Townie® shirts everywhere. It
wasnt long before it caught on at schools and other towns from this
tri-town community were requesting shirts named for their towns.
 In 1990 Frank
lost his job as a Junior Manufacturing Engineer due to a plant closing. He
decided to apply for a trademark which was approved for registration, had tee
shirts for all three towns printed up and started selling them from the back of
his pickup truck at community events. Today, sixteen years later, Townie
Enterprises, Inc. is a full scale manufacturing facility located in the
same plant that closed their doors in 1990. His screen printing operation
is equipped with state of the art automatic and
manual presses. The embroidery department is also fully automated with
computerized, multi-head embroidery machines. Both departments as well as an
initial pad printing operation are supported by a talented graphic art
department which provides custom designs that illustrate those things a
particular town is best known for.

Now, Townie Enterprises, Inc. is poised to
proudly offer The Original Townie® Clothing Line &
Accessories to the world.
So, whenever you feel connected to a very
special place for its unique, original qualities... accept no imitations!
