ELCOME TO THE R.H. LINDSAY WOOL COMPANY. Since 1936 our expertise has helped supply wool to hundreds of customers throughout North America
Boston has long been a hub for the world wool trade. During the first half of the 20th century, wool for U.S. apparel was shipped here for sorting and selling to mills through a vast broker-dealer network. Hundreds of companies thrived off the world's wool that passed through our port and shaped the commerce of Boston and New England.
Today R.H. Lindsay Company is one of a handful of Boston-based firms still trading wool. We have developed a specialty line of wool for handcrafters, artists and unique uses in a wide range of quantities. Spinning, felting and dollmaking are some of the most popular uses. We also supply wool to the commercial wool industry.
