Blue Ridge Manufacturing produces and sells towels for the U.S. ‘sports towel’ market. A ‘sports towel’ is a towel that has the promotion of an event or a logo printed on it.

The firm designs, knits, prints and embroiders towels in three sizes: regular (18”x18”), hand (12”x20”) and mid-range (15”x24”). Occasionally, customers order towels in another size, referred to as ‘special’.
