Broder Bros. Co.
 PROFILE
Selling clothes is in the genes of sportswear distributor Broder Bros. The business began as a haberdashery distributorship in 1919, and three generations of the Brode family controlled it during the 1900s. The company has evolved from hats and gloves and now distributes imprintable sportswear in the form of golf shirts, T-shirts, sweatshirts, jerseys, and other items. Broder Bros. also offers its private-label Luna Pier outerwear. Broder Bros.' customers, mostly small retailers in the US, can view and order merchandise through seasonal catalogs or online. Bain Capital owns the majority interest of the company, while father and son Harold and Michael Brode maintain management roles.
