Shaping the Next Generation
For more than 30 years, S3A has delivered innovative products to the biggest names in sports. Now, we’re bringing that expertise directly to buyers at every level of the industry.
INNVOVATIVE
Product Design
We collaborate with manufacturers to create new products for every level of competition
After researching the market, the priority is selecting a product that precisely meets the buyer’s needs. We excel at guiding them to a solution that delivers the original concept’s intent—with the performance and impact required for success.
SPORT-SPECIFIC
Market Research
Insight from buyers at all levels of competition is a vital part of our process
It’s easy to get tunnel vision and create a product based on what you want to deliver rather than what the customer truly needs. We believe that integrating consumer insights is essential to the product creation process—it’s one of our top priorities and a defining strength of our approach.
SINGLE-SOURCE
Digital Markets
We connect directly to secondary markets, cutting out intermediaries and accelerating growth
Gaining a foothold in non-retail sectors, such as team sports, can be both demanding and costly. We simplify your access to these buyers with single-source solutions that lower entry costs, boost visibility, and protect your brand image.
TOGETHER
Our Goals
Innovation
Our program introduces the latest styles, fabric/material trends and branding techniques to strategic buyers and influencers across the industry
Impact
We are evolving a legacy infrastructure into buyer-focused platforms that simplify the quote-to-order process, reduce pricing, and expand product options.
Control
Manufacturers gain direct access to buyers in secondary markets, giving them greater control over product positioning, pricing, and distribution options
RETAIL
Direct Commerce
Factory eCommerce models are reshaping how products reach the market.
By selling direct from the factory, brands and buyers gain full control over pricing, inventory, and customization—while accelerating time-to-market. Products are made on demand, aligned to real customer needs, and delivered with complete transparency. For performance-driven industries like sports, direct commerce creates a faster, smarter, and more profitable path from production to consumer.
