What this tells a buyer
The tool-relevant import record points to a Taiwan-and-China supply base, led by an Industro-branded Taiwan source shipping gear wrenches, impact sockets, and ratchet tie-down straps, the core mechanics line.
China suppliers cover accessories and hardware, electrical connectors, tire covers, RV step rugs, and tie wire, consistent with a broad aftermarket accessories catalog rather than a single product family.
The public 'Industro International' customs record is mixed with unrelated co-shipper and notify-party entries and imports under multiple names, so only the clearly tool-related supplier lines are reported here.

What Industro International makes
Industro International is a North Salt Lake, Utah tool company that sells a broad aftermarket range under the Industro brand. Its catalog spans hand tools (screwdrivers, hammers, hex keys, wire strippers, utility knives), mechanics and automotive specialty tools (sockets, combination and torque wrenches, ratchet handles, extractors, tap and die sets, hose repair, diagnostic tools), power tools, plumbing tools (pipe wrenches, tubing benders and cutters, flaring tools), work and vehicle lighting, tool storage and shop equipment, safety gear, and transport accessories such as cable ties, tie-down straps, winches, and wheel covers. The brand tagline is "step up to innovation."
The product line reads as an aftermarket accessories and tools assortment aimed at automotive, DIY, and light-industrial buyers rather than a manufactured component sold into vehicle assembly. Industro-branded tools carry an Industro Limited Lifetime Warranty against defects in workmanship and materials, and the brand is carried in retail: The Home Depot's catalog includes an Industro International limited lifetime warranty document for its tools.
Ownership and history
Industro International is a privately held company based in North Salt Lake, Utah, founded around 2012 per business directories. It operates alongside an affiliated entity, Newcorp International, at the same North Salt Lake location and phone number; Joe Newell is listed as the company's chief executive. The company has not published a corporate history or an About page on its own site, so its founding date and ownership arrangement come from third-party directories rather than company disclosures.
The company's footprint is small. Directory estimates place it in a 1 to 4 employee band with roughly $1.4 million in annual revenue, figures that are modeled by data brokers rather than reported, so they are best read as a signal of a small, focused distributor rather than as audited numbers. Its business is importing and distributing branded tools and accessories rather than manufacturing them domestically.
Association and market position
Industro International is a member of MEMA, the Motor and Equipment Manufacturers Association, and appears on MEMA Aftermarket Suppliers directories and the AftermarketNews buyers guide. The MEMA listing describes a wide product set including electrical connectors and wire, exterior and work lighting, hand and power tools, shop equipment such as presses and lifts, specialty and tire-service tools, tool storage, welding supplies, and wiper blades. That association places it in the automotive aftermarket tools and equipment channel that serves repair shops, retailers, and tier suppliers in the service segment. For buyers weighing nearshoring and tariff exposure on tool and accessory lines, its sourcing pattern below is the most concrete evidence available.
Sourcing evidence
Industro International's US import record is modest and consistent with a small branded-tool distributor: 42 sea shipments on record since November 2015, at about 1.09 TEU per shipment, with the most recent shipment logged May 26, 2026. The tool-relevant bills of lading point to a Taiwan-and-China supply base:
Supplier | Country | Shipments | Typical goods |
|---|---|---|---|
Industro Int'l | Taiwan | 14 | Straight gear wrenches, deep and thin-wall impact sockets, ratchet tie-down straps |
Hangzhou Sweet Imp&Exp | China | 3 | Electrical connectors, tire covers, RV step rugs, cords |
Xinjiayuan International Trade | China | 2 | Tie wire, steel stake tie wire |
Jinhua Funrun Vehicle Technology | China | 2 | Automotive accessories |
The largest named source, an Industro-branded supplier in Taiwan, ships the core mechanics tools (gear wrenches, impact sockets, tie-down straps), while the China suppliers cover accessories and hardware. Cumulative ocean shipping spend is estimated at roughly $106,000 across the covered records, an order-of-magnitude figure rather than an audited one.
Coverage caveats matter more than usual here. These are US ocean-freight records only, so air, truck, and rail movements do not appear. The public aggregate record for the "Industro International" name is also mixed with unrelated co-shipper and notify-party entries, and the record notes the name importing under multiple aliases and addresses, so only the clearly tool-related supplier lines are reported above. Product categories come from declared manifest codes, which are noisy. Absence of a record is not evidence of absence.
