Haverhill, Massachusetts
About Southwick
Italian immigrants Nicholas and Vito Grieco came to the United States in the early 1900s, working as suit-pressers in Brooklyn and then tailors in New York. Eventually they landed in Massachusetts, where in 1929 they opened the Grieco Bros., a custom suit company that incorporated the “natural shoulder philosophy” style of clothing. A dedication to quality and craftsmanship has kept the company, now called Southwick, in business ever since. Presidents, ambassadors, corporate leaders and more have worn Southwick suits over the decades. Nearly everything Southwick makes is manufactured in the United States, but they do import some items.
