- The Stephan Co. is a distributor and manufacturer of barber, beauty, and personal care products operating primarily in the United States with select overseas markets. Founded in 1897 and headquartered in St. Petersburg, Florida, the company offers a wide range of grooming and haircare items under proprietary and third-party brands including Campbell's liquid shave creams and cleaners, Latherking shaving products, Stephan men’s grooming and haircare products, BarberMate professional barber racks, Stix Fix hair polish, and SuperCut hair shears. The company’s product portfolio encompasses professional barber supplies, personal care items, and beauty products sold directly to barbershops, distributors, and through online channels. The Stephan Co. also operates a network of subsidiaries that include Morris Flamingo, Williamsport Bowman Barber Supply, MD Barber, 614 Barber Supply, Appleton Barber Supply, and Norva Barber Supply. In recent developments, The Stephan Co. has expanded its operations by acquiring Appleton Barber Supply for approximately $0.77 million and launching new product lines such as the LeKair Natural Curls series. However, as of November 26, 2025, the company filed for voluntary reorganization under Chapter 11 bankruptcy in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Middle District of Florida due to liabilities significantly exceeding its assets, with reported liabilities ranging from $50 million to $100 million against assets estimated between $10 million and $50 million. The filing aims to facilitate a consensual restructuring of obligations while maintaining operational continuity, with the operating subsidiaries not subject to bankruptcy proceedings and continuing business as usual. The company has scheduled court hearings to address cash management, vendor payments, and related matters to enable reorganization and continued operations during the bankruptcy process. The Stephan Co. serves professional and consumer markets in the household and personal products industry, focusing on men’s grooming and barber channels. Its product range includes shaving creams, haircare solutions, grooming accessories, and professional tools, positioning it as one of the longest-standing players in the U.S. men’s hair care and barber products market with over 125 years of industry experience. Its headquarters is in Florida with additional operational locations in Pennsylvania and Ohio. The company maintains a legacy as the first U.S. professional men’s hair care company and first to distribute through the barber shop channel, sustaining a diverse portfolio of branded and private label products targeting barbers, beauty professionals, and personal care consumers nationwide. The company’s strategic moves in the past two years reflect efforts to strengthen market presence through acquisition and new product innovation while managing financial restructuring to address current market and operational challenges. The Stephan Co. continues to position itself as a comprehensive supplier in the barber and personal grooming sectors with an extended product assortment to serve professional distributors and retail outlets across its geographic footprint.
