Management
U.S. Fastener Import & Trading Company (USFITC) was established in 2013, driven by a strong interest in international trade and entrepreneurship. Based in Southern California and launched by Vivian Chen, a business graduate from California State University Long Beach, the company entered the fastener industry following a recommendation from a family friend visiting from Taiwan attending the International Fastener Expo.
Shortly after its founding, USFITC secured its first order—a shipment of 10,000 custom step bolts delivered 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, U.S. Fastener Import & Trading Company serves a wide range of industries, building strong global relationships with suppliers and customers. With a focus on quality and service, the company continues to evolve to meet the changing needs of its clients.
