Counselor’s exclusive ranking of the suppliers with the most revenue in the promotional products industry.

S&S Activewear
(asi/84358)

It’s been a busy 18 or so months for the Bolingbrook, IL-based apparel supplier. Counselor estimates that S&S Activewear’s sales increased about 8% in 2021. Private equity firm Clayton, Dubilier & Rice became the majority stakeholder in S&S in early March last year. More big news came in November when S&S acquired TSC Apparel, which at the time was the 14th largest supplier in promo. S&S followed that acquisi­tion up with another headline-grabber, buying supplier TSF Sportswear this past April. Meanwhile, in key C-suite moves made in December, S&S promoted former CFO/COO Frank Myers to president and hired Christopher Kodosky as CFO. And oh by the way: CEO Jim Shannon was named Counselor’s 2022 Person of the Year – in sig­nificant part for spearheading remarkable growth and scoring so many important deals.
