U.S. Fastener Import & Trading Company (USFITC) began in 2013 with an interest in international trade and the opportunities surrounding the Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach. A trusted business connection in Taiwan introduced the company’s founder to the fastener industry, where its broad applications and global reach presented an opportunity to build a business connecting manufacturers, suppliers, and customers across markets.
USFITC’s first transaction came shortly after its founding: the import and delivery of 10,000 custom step bolts to Fastenal’s distribution center in Anaheim, California. That initial order marked the beginning of the company’s work connecting customers with manufacturers and supply sources across international markets.
Over the years, USFITC has expanded its capabilities from commercial and industrial fasteners to specialized sourcing and procurement for aerospace, defense, and other applications. Today, the company works with suppliers and customers in the United States and internationally, providing practical sourcing solutions while navigating procurement, export compliance, and cross-border trade.
USFITC has experience procuring and exporting Mil-Spec fasteners, aerospace and defense hardware, and industrial supplies supporting international aerospace programs, foreign defense ministries, and U.S. military facilities overseas. As the company continues to evolve, its focus remains straightforward: connect reliable supply with customer requirements and help move critical products where they are needed.
