At the world headquarters of Ahead, located in New Bedford, Massachusetts, you will find a diverse and talented workforce. These individuals make us who we are and are essential to how we continue to be the leader in providing innovative and quality headwear, apparel and accessories to our partners across the globe. In our efforts to continue attracting gifted people to our company, we are proud of our association with the Immigrants' Assistance Center, Inc. (IAC). The IAC has been helping immigrants in our community that are on the path to citizenship overcome language, cultural and economic barriers, and integrate into the American way of life while maintaining their ethnic identity and pride. Several members of the ahead team recently attended the IAC’s Annual Gala and we salute them for their ongoing efforts in making New Bedford a spectacular place to live and work. #NewBedford

Located on the shores of the Massachusetts’ south coast, the city of New Bedford is a testament to resilience, innovation, and cultural richness. Ahead is proud to call New Bedford home and we are equally proud of our place in its vibrant and healthy creative economy. As a creative leader in our own industry we are able to draw inspiration from our area and are also fortunate to have access to a wealth of creative talent that calls the New Bedford region home. In a recently released economic study, "The Composition of the New Bedford Creative Economy and Economic Impacts 2018-2022 (2024)," Ahead was identified as the community’s largest employer within the creative economy sector (represented in the graphic below). This is a testament to our success and more importantly, our people. All of our associates, no matter what role they play, are dedicated to providing creative ideas and solutions for our partners every single day.

As the PGA Championship kicks off at Valhalla today we wanted to share just a few of our hats that are on site in Louisville.

Our commitment starts with our parent company, New Wave Group AB of Sweden, which is a leader in sustainability among companies in Scandinavian for its strategies in sourcing, utilizing, manufacturing and shipping goods around the world.
