Halsted

read moreSince 1876, our strength has been to provide a comprehensive purchasing program for packaging distributors and bag companies. We want to be very clear: we do not solicit or sell to end-users. Our salespeople are not competing with your staff. The team at Halsted is here to help your packaging company compete in this market. We handle the sourcing, quality control, financing, transportation logistics, warehousing and distribution for your packaging products. We can ship containers direct to your designated location, or arrange for partial containers to be shipped from one of our warehouses.

Started in 1876 as a bag manufacturing business by E.S. Halsted, the Halsted Bag factory was located in downtown Manhattan. For more than one hundred years, Halsted specialized in manufacturing bags for all trades - from potato sacks used by local farmers to burlap sandbags found in military bunkers during Vietnam. In 1927, with the Halsted name growing throughout the industry, Mr. Halsted sensed the need to expand the manufacturing facility.
