August 11, 2025

Hi URA member!

August is here—and so is the countdown to Oklahoma City!



In less than two months, URA’s 19th Annual Trade Show will bring together independent retailers, top manufacturers, and industry experts for four days of connection, learning, and opportunity. This year’s theme, Growth is Possible, is more than a tagline—it’s your invitation to discover fresh ideas, uncover incremental sales opportunities, and strengthen the relationships that help your business thrive.

From a sold-out show floor to targeted education sessions and can’t-miss networking events, Oklahoma City is where you’ll find the tools, insights, and energy to make the rest of 2025 your best yet.

Let’s get ready to grow—together.

Celebrate National Uniform Day – September 17, 2025

We’re proud to partner with the Network Association of Uniform Manufacturers and Distributors (NAUMD) to celebrate National Uniform Day on Wednesday, September 17.

This annual event shines a spotlight on the people who wear uniforms with pride—across healthcare, public safety, hospitality, and countless other industries—and the vital role uniforms play in their daily work.

As independent uniform retailers, you have the privilege of outfitting these professionals and seeing the pride they take in their appearance. Let’s honor them together!

Mark your calendar and share your celebration – Post photos of your team, customers, and community members in uniform using #NationalUniformDay. Let’s make this year’s National Uniform Day the biggest celebration yet!
