A little about our business.
Uniformity is a school uniform store specializing in new and resale uniforms. Our customers are primarily parents whose children attend private schools in the Lafayette area. We offer new uniforms for 14 schools in the Lafayette area, as well as a few schools farther away. Half of our store consists of resale pieces that customers turn in for store credit. Most of our sales are done in the store, but we have a growing online customer base. We did about 25% of our sales last year online.
The summer is the busiest season for our store. Most customers do the bulk of their shopping during the summer, and come in during the school year for additional or seasonal pieces.
During the summer, we’re open Monday-Saturday. During the school year, we’re open Monday-Thursday, and shorter hours on Saturdays.
