About Headwings
Beginnings
Headwings, Inc., was founded in New York, October 1991. The name was inspired by Mercury, the Roman God of Trade and Commerce. We see that our work is a continuation of his mission, now symbolized in our logo remeniscent of Mercury's winged helmet. Importantly, Mercury (often known by his Greek name "Hermes") was also the messenger of the Gods.
Our Mission
In keeping with our founding aspiration to "bridge the East and the West, the classic and contemporary, intangible beauty and material goods" we view our work as part of the exchange of the very best that each continent and culture has to offer the other. We continue to be messengers, though perhaps today, we are messengers between the nations and cultures and not just the gods!
international commerce
Headwings works with all aspects of the quality fashion and food industries, from design to production, project management, logistics, distribution, import/export, warehousing and sales.
In addition to the more obvious sourcing and trading of goods, we provide bespoke (custom) service for the design and production of complete collections of leather goods, apparel and footwear. Headwings brings creativity and style to the industry through its unique partnership with Synergy Group: Studio Moda & Design.
Our experienced international team consults for international distributors, import/export traders, and assists with business related advice especially for international companies planning to set up operations in the U.S.A. and Europe.
Headwings corporate responsibility and innovation is exemplified in its active pursuit of cultural exchange in efforts such as the Sushi Night in at Lido Restaurant Bar in Civitanova Marche, Italy.
