Our History

Stars Branding began over 18 years ago with just a single heat press and a two-head embroidery machine. From humble beginnings, founder Tony Portillo turned a simple setup into one of the leading embroidery and screen printing companies in the Boston area.

Tony’s journey started when he noticed a common issue in the industry—delays and inconsistent quality. After experiencing firsthand how other providers often failed to deliver on time with the quality clients deserved, he decided to take matters into his own hands. His mindset was clear: “If you want something done right, do it yourself.”

With that philosophy, Tony built Stars Branding on a strong foundation of quality, reliability, and commitment. Every product and service is backed by a 100% satisfaction guarantee and delivered on time—every time. What began as a small operation has grown into a full-service branding and marketing company, trusted by businesses across Boston and beyond.
