S3A is a global network of OEM/CMT manufacturers specializing in new product development. Together, we are building the next generation of product for the sports industry and simplifying the process for buyers to design and purchase an exclusive item for their brand, store or customer.

What We Do

At the forefront of our business model is innovation. We prioritize the collection of reviews/suggestions from consumers at all levels of the market so that we can help you, the buyer, develop and build better products. Our team is passionate about working with original concepts for competitive athletes.

Why S3A?

From quote to delivery, we transparently and seamlessly communicate order and delivery specifications throughout the supply chain.

Quotes

Qualified buyers can receive customized quotes from our network of domestic and international factories. No payment or order commitment required.

Support

Through online tracking, email notifications and chat support, we are committed to full transparency on order production timelines and delivery status.

Samples

Digital concepts, including artwork and color specs, are provided before the order processing phase. Pre-production samples are available after order placement.

Accuracy

Quote and order details are digitally shared between all parties involved in the transaction. Removing the “relay” of specifications reduces production errors.

Exclusives

Buyers can choose to customize an item from an ODM template or build an original style that is exclusive to their brand, store, organization or event.

Branding

Our service includes a full range of branding options at our manufacturing facilities, from external and internal logos to hang tags and packaging.

OUR MODEL

Collective Strength

We connect buyers to CMT, ODM and OEM manufacturers across North America and around the world.

Collaboration with multiple manufacturers plays a pivotal role in ensuring that we have comprehensive market coverage across the sporting goods industry. Our alliance enables individual manufacturers to channel their expertise, resources, and focus into smaller product offerings that uniquely serve the needs of the market. This partnership not only enhances product diversity but also fosters innovation, as the exchange of ideas and technologies has become the catalyst for S3A to stay ahead in an rapidly-changing environment.

Founded in Canada, we have been designing, developing and manufacturing sport-specific products since 1995.

We are always willing to leverage our expertise and dedication into new opportunities for both buyers and manufacturers. Count on us to facilitate meaningful connections that build your profile within the industry.
