U.S. Fastener Import & Trading Company (USFITC) was established in 2013 by Vivian Chen, driven by her interest in international trade and business ownership. She entered the fastener business after a family friend from Taiwan encouraged her to explore the fastener industry due to its versatile and global nature.
Shortly after its launch, USFITC delivered its first order: 10,000 custom step bolts to Fastenal’s distribution center in Anaheim, California. This early success led to new opportunities and laid the foundation for the company’s continued growth.
Today, the company works with clients from a wide range of industries as it continues to build relationships with suppliers and customers within the U.S. and globally. Focusing on creative solutions, the company continues to evolve to meet the changing needs of its clients.
