Halstead International · Consumer goods distribution

Big enough to stock it. Small enough to answer.

Halstead International is a family-run distributor of footwear, outdoor, and active lifestyle brands. We buy deep, hold inventory, and ship to retail accounts across North America and abroad.

What we carry

Stocked to depth. Brand availability moves with allocation.

Services

Buy deep, ship fast, stay in stock.

We take title to inventory and carry it. That is the whole business — our customers get availability without holding the risk or the warehouse.

Sourcing

Volume purchasing direct from manufacturers and through partner distributors. Standing programs on core items, allocation buys on the rest.

Warehousing

Inventory held in third-party facilities with case-level receiving and inspection. Prep, labeling, and bundling available on request.

Distribution

Case and pallet quantities shipped nationally, LTL or parcel. Line sheets refreshed as availability moves, with allocation by account.

On the floor

Where the inventory actually sits.

Case-level receiving, inspection on arrival, and stock you can see counted.

ReceivingEvery inbound pallet counted and checked against the purchase order.
StorageThird-party warehousing with stock held to depth on core items.
OutboundCase and pallet quantities out the door, LTL or parcel.

Our story

Family-owned, and built to stay that way.

We have been in consumer goods since 2008 — one category and a short list of accounts to start. We have added a lot of both since, and changed very little else.

Our buyers deal with the same people every time they call. Decisions get made the same day. And when something goes sideways on an order, you hear it from us before you have to ask.
