Meet the "Seat Man" Behind Have a Seat NYC

Have A Seat NYC is the brainchild of Vincent Nicolosi, affectionately known as the "Seat Man" around New York City. Inspired by the hustle and bustle of city life, Vincent manufactures this unique, height adjustable seat to bring comfort and convenience to the streets.

Vincent Nicolosi is no stranger to hard work. A proud Teamster since January 2015, Vincent began his career with Certified Moving & Storage NYC, where his dedication and leadership earned him a promotion to Foreman just months after starting. With his roots in sales, entrepreneurship, blue-collar labor and his background as a football coach, Vincent understands the value of having reliable tools on hand—especially when it comes to taking a much-needed break.

From long workdays to coaching sidelines, commuting across the city, or waiting for transportation, Vincent recognized a universal need: a seat that’s always ready when you need it. That’s where his entrepreneurial vision took shape. Discovering the innovative telescopic stool, Vincent worked closely with his manufacturer to bring something extraordinary to market.

As the founder of Have A Seat NYC, Vincent combines practicality with creativity. He’s not just selling a seat; he’s redefining portable comfort. With a keen eye for design and a passion for sports, he introduced exclusive two-tone color combinations inspired by sports team colors of professional, collegiate, and local organizations.

Whether you’re tailgating, working, or exploring the city that never sleeps, Vincent Nicolosi’s Have A Seat NYC ensures you’ll always have a seat—designed for New Yorkers, by a true New Yorker.
