Scorpion Alterations is an alterations, repair, and custom clothing business located on South College Street in Newberg, Oregon. It is an open-minded, creative and comfortable shop that customers know they can trust for their alterations needs.

Both women are highly experienced and skilled in the industry, and have a fresh approach to offer their clients. Special relationships with custom clothing businesses, and George Fox University, among others have been established, creating instant networking. Located on Highway 99W, just an hour between Portland and the Oregon Coast, Scorpion Alterations provides a shop that people feel comfortable coming to. This is a Partnership, looking for angel investors willing to help fund our business. General funding goes toward business continuation and maintenance, payroll, overhead costs, and legal costs.
