Unix Industries, Inc. was incorporated in 1987 in Santa Monica, California. It is wholly owned and operated by minority women. Initially, the company functioned strictly as an importer, purchasing items from Asia on an as-needed basis for clients. As demand grew and stabilized for certain products, the company invested in its own manufacturing facilities. Unix's injection molding plant was established in Taiwan in 1989, and its bag manufacturing facility was established in China in 1991, both of which are ISO 9000 certified. Since 1987, Unix has supplied clients in the consumer electronics, cosmetics, and travel industries, including Fellowes, Inc., Scosche Industries, and Etymotic Research, Inc. Items manufactured by Unix for these clients have been sold in Wal-Mart, Best Buy, Circuit City, eBags, and Amazon, as well as through phone carrier companies such as AT&T, Sprint, and Verizon.
