Hanes names S&S Activewear exclusive distributor for printwear channel
HanesBrands Inc. has named S&S Activewear as the exclusive distributor of the Hanes brand in the North American printwear channel.
As part of the agreement, S&S will carry the full line of Hanes products. S&S will also offer deeper inventory positions and enhanced availability across its national distribution network.
Customers will continue to be able to purchase Hanes products from other distributors during the transition, with the exclusive partnership fully in effect by December 31.
'This is more than an agreement—it's an evolution of one of the industry's most enduring relationships,' said Mike Faircloth, HanesBrands president global operations.
'Hanes has been a foundational brand in printwear for decades. With S&S as our exclusive distributor, we're doubling down on that legacy while positioning ourselves to lead in the next chapter of the market.'
The announcement follows S&S's recent integration with Alphabroder, creating a unified platform with over 6 million-square-feet of warehouse space, advanced automation technologies, and a portfolio of more than 100 leading and exclusive brands.
'We're incredibly proud to deepen our relationship with Hanes, a brand that represents both heritage and reliability,' said Frank Myers, CEO of S&S Activewear.
'As a unified company, we're in a better position than ever to bring more of Hanes's trusted styles to more customers, more efficiently while continuing to raise the bar on service.'

Oil prices surge, Europe's shares set for a hit on Israel Iran strikes
European indexes prepared to take a hit on Friday as Asian markets dropped on news that Israel had attacked Iran's capital. The strikes came amid the ramping up of tensions over Tehran's rapidly advancing nuclear program. Oil prices, on the other hand, soared — linked to concerns that the conflict could restrict supply. US benchmark crude oil rose 8.8%, to just under $74 per barrel. Brent crude, the international standard, increased by 8.28% to $75.10 per barrel. In share trading, Tokyo's Nikkei 225 fell 1.2% to 37,719.82 while the Kospi in Seoul edged 1.4% lower to 2,879.08. Hong Kong's Hang Seng retreated 0.9% to 23,831.85 and the Shanghai Composite Index lost 0.8% to 3,375.16. Australia's S&P/ASX 200 drifted 0.3% lower to 8,535.90. An Israeli attack on Iran is in "our top ten of global risks', but 'Asian markets are expected to recover quickly as they have relatively limited exposure to the conflict and growing ties to unaffected Saudi Arabia and the UAE', said Xu Tiachen of The Economist Intelligence. Following the strikes on Iran, S&P 500 futures dropped 1.5%, Nasdaq 100 futures fell 1.7% and Dow Jones Industrial Average futures fell 1.4% by around 1.30am ET. On Thursday, US stock indexes had ticked higher following another encouraging update on inflation across the country. The S&P 500 rose 0.4% to 6,045.26. The Dow Jones Industrial Average added 0.2% to 42,967.62, and the Nasdaq Composite gained 0.2% to 19,662.48. Oracle pushed upward on the market after jumping 13.3%. The tech giant delivered stronger profit and revenue for the latest quarter than analysts expected, and CEO Safra Catz said it expects revenue growth 'will be dramatically higher' in its upcoming fiscal year. That helped offset a 4.8% loss for Boeing after Air India said a London-bound flight crashed shortly after taking off from Ahmedabad airport on Thursday with 242 passengers and crew onboard. The Boeing 787 Dreamliner crashed into a residential area near the airport five minutes after taking off. Stocks broadly got some help from easing Treasury yields in the bond market following the latest update on inflation. Thursday's update said inflation at the wholesale level wasn't as bad last month as economists expected. Wall Street took it as a signal that the Federal Reserve will have more leeway to cut interest rates later this year in order to give the economy a boost. The Fed's next meeting on interest rates is scheduled for next week, but the nearly unanimous expectation on Wall Street is that officials won't cut. In currency trading early Friday, the US dollar rose slightly to 143,67 Japanese yen. The euro fell about 0.5% against the US dollar, to $1.1528.
