Benco Group has operated as a wholesale clothing distributor out of the Colon Free Zone, Panama, since 1989. With 37 years in the free trade zone, we've built a distribution model designed specifically for wholesalers and distributors supplying stores across different countries in Latin America and the Caribbean — not for retail sales.
The Colon Free Zone is one of the region's most important logistics hubs for wholesale clothing, thanks to its strategic location and free-trade status. Operating from here lets us hold physical inventory — more than 6,000 styles across 10 owned and licensed brands — and ship orders quickly to multiple countries, instead of every distributor having to import directly from factories in Asia and wait months for a container.
We work with distributors who pick up merchandise directly from our Colon Free Zone warehouse, as well as distributors who coordinate shipping through their own freight forwarder into their country. That gives flexibility both to distributors based in Panama and to those re-exporting into other markets across the region. By combining brands and categories into a single order with a single freight cost, distributors cut logistics costs compared to committing to a full container of one brand.
For a clothing distributor, working with a supplier that's been established in the Colon Free Zone for close to four decades means licensed brands with proper documentation, accessible order minimums, support in the region's own time zone, and merchandise available immediately rather than the lead times of direct importing. That combination of track record, in-stock inventory, and strategic location is the foundation of our wholesale distribution model.
If you're restocking a single store, browse our wholesale clothing catalog for the Colon Free Zone, or if you focus on kids' apparel, see our wholesale children's clothing offering. To set up an order as a distributor, you can contact a Colon Free Zone clothing distributor on our team.
