After a successful 30-year run, Steve Sherman, founder of Sew Shore Embroidery in Naples, recently retired and handed his business over to Jason Marshall and Albert Saliev.
Sherman, a retired police officer, opened Sew Shore in 1986 in downtown Naples. It was the only embroidery business in Naples at the time. The business established Sherman to restaurants, hotels and hospitals, noticing the equipment and digital setup he was equipped with in his shop.
Sherman got recognition from the Disney hotels, Guy Harvey and the Ritz Carlton, which catapulted him into success in the first five years of his business. He marketed and sold products during the day, and ran the machines at night and on the weekends. It was a two-person job he and one helper worked at for three years.
