UNIFI INC

Unifi manufactures polyester and nylon yarns from both virgin and recycled materials, serving manufacturers in the apparel, hosiery, automotive, home furnishings, industrial, and medical sectors. The company produces partially oriented yarn, textured yarn, solution-dyed variants, and specialty products including spandex-covered yarns. A significant portion of its product line consists of recycled solutions derived from pre-consumer and post-consumer waste streams, including plastic bottle flakes and polyester polymer beads, which the company markets under the REPREVE brand.

The company operates across North America, Central America, South America, Asia, and Europe, distributing products primarily through its internal sales force and independent sales agents to yarn manufacturers, knitters, and weavers. Unifi's customer base spans multiple industries, allowing it to serve both traditional textile applications and emerging sustainability-focused markets. The company employs approximately 2,500 full-time employees and operates with a market capitalization of $0.1 billion.

Unifi was incorporated in 1969 and maintains its headquarters in Greensboro, North Carolina. The textile manufacturing sector classification reflects its position as a producer of intermediate yarn products rather than finished consumer goods.
