Fondée aux Etats-Unis en 1948 par quatre frères, Haddad Brands est une entreprise familiale privée, qui depuis 70 ans s’est développée depuis New-York, jusqu’à prendre sa dimension internationale actuelle 🌍. Son expérience, ses équipes talentueuses à travers le monde, ainsi que les marques prestigieuses qu’elle représente, ont fait d’elle un des leaders du secteur des vêtements pour enfants dans le monde 🥇.
En 2017, Haddad Brands Europe, est née quant à elle de la rencontre des dirigeants de Haddad Brands US et de quatre entrepreneurs français, spécialistes de vêtements sous licences, connaissant parfaitement le marché européen 👬.
Haddad Brands Europe, founded in 2017, specializes in the distribution of licensed children's apparel (Nike, Levi’s, Converse, Jordan, Lacoste…) across Europe.
Operational for 7 years, the company has experienced tremendous growth and now has over 500 employees across the continent.
We distribute our products through both wholesale—working with major specialty and multi-brand retailers—and retail, via our branded corners in department stores.
In practical terms, this means that if you buy children's apparel (ages 0-7 for Nike, 0-16 for Levi’s, Converse, and Jordan), whether in a physical store or online, in the Netherlands, the UK, Italy, or anywhere else in Europe, the product you're holding has come through us —even if you purchased it in an official Nike or Levi’s store!
