Where Can I Buy Wholesale Richardson Hats?
Share

If you're searching for wholesale Richardson hats, you want two things: trusted, name-brand caps at bulk pricing, and zero surprises after you've promised hats to a team, crew, or customer.
Richardson is one of the most requested headwear brands we see at Presto Embroidery, especially the classic Richardson 112 trucker hat, because it holds its shape and takes embroidery cleanly.
Buying Richardson in bulk isn't complicated once you know where wholesalers actually get inventory. Here's what you need to know.
Where Does Richardson Sell Wholesale?
Richardson doesn't sell direct-to-consumer in large quantities. Instead, they work through authorized distributors and dealers. Some of the most common wholesale channels include:
-
Headwear specialty distributors (companies that serve embroidery and screen-printing shops)
-
Promo product distributors (companies that supply branded merchandise for events and businesses)
-
Authorized Richardson dealers (shops like Presto Embroidery that source Richardson hats as part of their decoration services)
If you're ordering blank Richardson hats to decorate yourself, you'll need to work with a distributor account. If you want the hats already embroidered or decorated, working directly with a shop like Presto Embroidery is usually simpler, because we handle the sourcing and decoration in one step.
Can I Buy Richardson Hats Direct From Richardson?
Richardson does have a website, but it's primarily set up for wholesale accounts. Individual buyers and small orders are typically referred to their dealer network. If you want to order a handful of embroidered Richardson hats without setting up a wholesale account, working with a custom hat shop is the easiest path.
What's A Good Minimum Order For Richardson Hats?
Minimums vary depending on how you're ordering:
-
Blank wholesale: Typically 12–24 pieces per style/color, though some distributors go lower
-
Custom embroidered through a shop: Varies by shop, but most start at 6–12 pieces
At Presto Embroidery, we work with small and large orders. If you need 6 hats for a small crew or 500 for a company event, we can usually accommodate that.
What About Richardson Hats On Amazon Or eBay?
You can find Richardson hats on Amazon and other retail platforms, but pricing is rarely true wholesale. You're usually paying closer to retail, sometimes less on discounted colorways, but not the same savings you'd get through a legitimate distributor or decorator relationship.
If consistency matters—same color, same style, same quality across a large order—Amazon isn't reliable enough for team or corporate orders.
The Simplest Option: Order Through A Custom Hat Shop
If your goal is to get Richardson hats embroidered with your logo and delivered as a finished product, working with a shop like Presto Embroidery is usually faster and less complicated than trying to buy blank wholesale yourself.
Here's what that process typically looks like:
-
You pick the hat style and color
-
We source the blanks
-
We digitize your logo (if needed) and stitch it
-
You receive finished, decorated hats
No distributor account required. No minimum order headaches. Just a straightforward path from logo to finished product.
