INDUSTRY NOW

Cap America was founded in 1985 in Fredericktown, Missouri and the small town and people in it helped it grow into the successful business it is today. We strive to make the purchase of headwear a confident and easy experience and you will partner with a valuable resource willing to go the extra mile and earn and keep your business. Cap America also strives to be an active participant in the community and to give back to those who supported us all these years.

Can you share with everyone a little about your company and commitment to the dealer/retailer network?

Cap America is family owned and operated out of Fredericktown, Missouri. We have been leaders in the promotional industry for 35+ years and are excited to be fully committed to the dealer/retailer network. We are backed with inventory and have the capacity to turn orders faster than the dealer network has ever before experienced. We offer the tools dealers need to be successful selling headwear – free concepts, free spec samples, free digitizing and an outstanding customer service team dedicated to making sure your Cap America experience is efficient and rewarding.

What are some of the new/innovative products everyone should know about?

In the summer of 2020, we partnered with Yupoong to offer our new CA Premium Line. This line is co-branded with Flexfit® and brings the most retail inspired materials and fits to the dealer/retail network. Our i8502 is simply the best trucker, not only in our new line, but on the market right now. This cap includes the innovative 110® technology which combines the comfort of Flexfit® with the ease of an adjustable hat. The i8502 and the other CA Premium Line items are going to be hot this year.

What are you looking forward to about this year’s Management Conference?

We are looking forward to meeting new people, socializing and talking caps! Seriously in all honesty, it will be great to talk about the industry with industry leaders again.

How have you adapted in the past yearand-a-half from COVID?

As with all employers across the country, we adapted by changing our direction last year to masks. This year, things are coming back stronger than ever with our traditional product line. We have been staffing up and facing the difficulties in stride, head on. We spent pandemic downtime making improvements – we spent time educating and training our staff, upgrading building facilities, increasing inventory buys – anything we could do to better prepare ourselves for when business returned. We’re now back in full swing and ready to partner with dealers for success.
