Trust is not just a word—it’s a legacy we’ve upheld for over 75 years. Rico Industries has built a reputation for honesty, integrity, and reliability among customers, vendors, and industry peers.

Founded in 1944 by three immigrant relatives, we started by crafting wallets from scrap leather. As the business grew, so did our dedication to quality and service. Rico became a leading private-label wallet supplier for major U.S. retailers. Our reputation opened doors to distributing other brands, including sports-licensed products—an industry we officially entered in 1984.

In 2000, we acquired Tag Express, enhancing our service and securing our position as a premier hardgoods licensee for major sports leagues and colleges. With continued growth, we expanded further in 2009 by acquiring Big League Promotions and Tags By Design. In 2013, we launched SPARO, our first brand, starting with a stylish collection of sports-licensed watches.

As we look to the future, our commitment remains unchanged: honesty, quality, and keeping our promises. We appreciate your trust and business.

Thank you for being a part of our journey.
