About Us

Established in 1994 as the Great Atlantic T-shirt Company, owners Bob Morris and Shawn Riley built an unparalleled reputation for providing honest and dependable service in the North Florida marketplace. 

From humble beginnings as individually operated garage shops, the partners have built Great Atlantic Outfitters into a successful business employing 20 men and women in its daily operations where in excess of 2,500,000 logos are screenprinted and embroidered annually.

Shawn utilizes over 20 years of hands-on screenprinting experience to manage the production staff and monitor quality control.  When not involved in the daily activities at Great Atlantic, he enjoys traveling to Central America and the Caribbean, surfing, diving, and golf.  He resides in Jacksonville Beach, FL with his wife and two sons.

Experience as an auditor for the Walt Disney Company and a degree in international business from Jacksonville University enable Bob to manage the administrative operations of Great Atlantic in addition to heading up the art department.  Outside of work, he is a successful professional saltwater tournament fisherman and has enjoyed a long career in competitive amateur surfing.  He lives in Neptune Beach, FL with his wife and son.

“Why Great Atlantic?”

Having grown up on the beach, Bob and Shawn wanted to incorporate the sea into their name and their love for it into their corporate environment.  The staff of Great Atlantic Outfitters consists of creative outdoor enthusiasts who enjoy surfing, skateboarding, fishing, diving, music, and art.  We attempt to offer a challenging but fun work environment and have been fortunate enough to retain the services of our employees through a period of tremendous growth and its associated changes.  We look forward to serving you!
