United Basket Company was formed in 1945 in Brooklyn, New York. The Company's founder, Max Hanfling, immediately began importing from European sources located in basket producing regions of Poland, Yugoslavia and Portugal.

In 1945, we relocated our headquarters to New York and expanded our warehousing to import baskets and furniture from many other countries, along with our Polish Merchandise. Now, almost a century later, United Basket Company still flourishes by offering their customers the finest quality products at competitive prices.
Please note that most orders are generally shipped within 5 working days or less and orders are processed year round.
In 1974, Max's son Phil joined the Company. He became President in 1978 and remains the CEO today.
In 1979, United Basket embarked on an expansion plan and began importing from Hong Kong, China and the Philippines. The Company also expanded its line of merchandise to include furniture and designer baskets.

Now over sixty five years since its humble beginnings, United Basket is still known as a primary source for high quality baskets and wicker furniture.
We are also beginning to import ceramic bowls, trays and jars for the packaging industry.
United Basket's account base now numbers over 5,000 active customers.

We participate at the New York Gift Show, The Basket Connection, The Philadelphia National Candy Show and the Fancy Food & Confection Show.
