Dave Ackley is thrilled to open the newest location of the “un-frog-ettable” custom t-shirt franchise at 261B Pascack Rd on August 14th.

TOWNSHIP OF WASHINGTON, NJ — Big Frog Custom T-Shirts & More, a leader in custom apparel franchising with over 75 locations across the U.S., is excited to announce the latest independently owned and operated store location in Township of Washington, New Jersey. Dave Ackley, a former lab-supplies professional with nearly 30 years of experience in the lab equipment industry, owns the new store, which opened its doors on August 14th and is located at 261B Pascack Rd.

“Dave’s store is our second location in New Jersey, and we’re proud to be partnering with an entrepreneur as passionate as he is,” said Tina Bacon-DeFrece, president and co-founder of Big Frog. “Dave’s approach to business in his community aligns perfectly with Big Frog’s values, and we’re excited for him to hit the ground running.”

Ackley, who secured the site in Township of Washington earlier this year, is enthusiastic about the positive impact Big Frog will have on local businesses.

“There are tons of small businesses in our area, and I’m hoping to make their lives easier by giving them a real person to talk to about their custom apparel needs instead of just an impersonal online-only process,” said Ackley. “I’ve been around apparel and printing for years, and Big Frog gives me an opportunity to get involved in my current community with sports teams and other local businesses. I’ve already built many relationships, and I’m working to create additional community connections.”

Big Frog Custom T-Shirts & More offers a range of decorating services for clothing, including Direct-to-Garment (DTG) printing, Direct-to-Film (DTF) printing, embroidery, screen printing, vinyl, and Ultra Print (heat press). The franchise provides free design assistance, with no art or setup fees and quick turnaround times for each order.

To celebrate, Big Frog of Northern New Jersey is offering 20% off each new customer’s first order within 30 days of the store’s opening date. In alignment with Big Frog’s community focus, Ackley also is committed to fundraising efforts for nonprofits that support animal advocacy, homelessness relief, educational outreach, and more.

“I have always loved managing people and developing teams,” said Ackley. “It is so fulfilling to know that my wife Jill and I will be supporting individuals and organizations in our own community while contributing to a larger, nationwide mission, and we can’t wait to get started.” ABOUT BIG FROG CUSTOM T-SHIRTS & MORE:
