R&D Tax Credits: 80% of eligible companies do not claim them! Every year, companies waste thousands or even hundreds of thousands of dollars due to simple misunderstandings about the Research and Development (R&D) tax credit. Amended claims can go back three years and in most cases generate substantial refunds for past R&D activities.

Small businesses in the Textile, Apparel, and Footwear sector can significantly benefit from the R&D tax credit by offsetting costs associated with developing new materials, improving manufacturing processes, or designing innovative products. Activities such as testing new fabrics, optimizing production lines, or creating sustainable solutions are eligible. Fundamentally, the R&D tax credit payroll offset for startups allows qualified businesses to apply the credit against their payroll tax liability, providing a valuable cash boost, particularly for early-stage companies, even if they are not yet profitable. This frees up capital to reinvest in further innovation and growth.

Clothing and Footwear Case Study

Companies in the textile and footwear sector are at the forefront of innovation, constantly investing in new products and processes to remain competitive and meet evolving consumer needs. The Research and Development (R&D) Tax Credit offers a powerful incentive for these businesses to foster groundbreaking advancements while significantly reducing their tax burden. For this industry, eligible R&D activities may include developing advanced fabrics with enhanced durability or performance, creating new coating formulations to improve wear and weather resistance, or designing footwear and apparel with optimized functionality for various environments and conditions. These innovations not only improve product quality and customer satisfaction but also help companies streamline production, reduce waste, and achieve sustainability goals. By leveraging R&D tax credits, textile and footwear companies can reinvest savings into further research, accelerate product development cycles, and maintain a strong competitive edge in both domestic and international markets. This financial support empowers companies of all sizes—from established manufacturers to emerging designers—to bring their innovative ideas to market more efficiently. Ultimately, the R&D tax credit represents a vital tool that drives growth, encourages technological progress, and strengthens the industry’s capacity to adapt to future challenges.
