History of Latin American Distributors, Inc.
Latin American Distributors, Inc. attributes their success to their great history, family values, focus on new technology, and more.
Over 40 years ago in 1975, Manuel Farinas and Oreales Valdivia bought a small wholesale company in a modest garage in Perth Amboy called Velasco/Del Rio Wholesaler Company. After years of success and growth, the business expanded and became Latin American Distributor Inc. in 1984. Oreales Valdivia handed all of his rights to the company over to Manuel Farinas, giving him full ownership of the company.
LADI currently operates out of a 135,000 Sq Foot facility in Eatontown, NJ and sells a variety of high quality household, beauty, and hardware products. Servicing retailers as far north as Massachusetts and as far south as Northern Virginia, the company is now a full-service family owned wholesale distributor. The excellent growth of the company can be attributed to a focus on investing in technology and experienced, dedicated employees. The business continues to grow thanks to LADI combining personal service with sophisticated business skills to achieve a tailored working relationship with their customers.
