Oakland,Oakland A'

An East Bay business that made uniforms for the Oakland A's talks about their history and what the departure means for them.

Everyone is talking about the team moving and what it means to fans and workers, but there are several local businesses that do work for the team, like Alliance Graphics in Berkeley. Their screen printing and embroidery shop provides all the uniforms for the staff - like ticket takers, ushers, guest services, security and the list goes on. The owner said he's been an A's fan since he moved to the Bay Area in 1984.

'All security people get a jacket, they'd get a hat, they'd get a shirt, often they'd get a sweater, and if you have 500, 600 people doing that … for a while there a couple hundred thousand dollars a year for us, and now it's all going away,' he said.
