    Simon & Authentic Brands to Buy Brooks Brothers

    https://nyti.ms/2DCNl47 Bankrupt Brooks Brothers Finds a Buyer The retailer is seeking court approval of a $325 million sale to a group backed by the mall owner Simon Property Group and Authentic Brands Group, a licensing firm. By Sapna Maheshwari Aug. 12, 2020 Brooks Brothers, the venerable retailer that was founded in 1818 and filed for bankruptcy last month, said it would be sold to Simon Property Group, the biggest mall operator in the United States, and Authentic Brands Group, a licensing firm. The $325 million offer for Brooks Brothers, up from a $305 million bid last month from the same suitors, is subject to court approval this week, the companies said in a statement late on Tuesday. The buyers committed to continue operating at least 125 Brooks Brothers retail locations. Before the pandemic, the company operated 424 retail and outlet stores globally, including 236 in the United States, according to court documents. The offer for Brooks Brothers came from an entity known as the SPARC Group, a joint venture between Simon Property and Authentic Brands Group. The mall owner and A.B.G. have teamed up on deals to buy other bankrupt retailers in recent years, including the teen chain Aéropostale and the fast-fashion behemoth Forever 21. SPARC has also bid on Lucky Brand, the denim company that filed for bankruptcy last month. A.B.G. is known for acquiring the intellectual property of brands like Barneys New York and Sports Illustrated, then licensing their names to other companies and earning royalties from related products. The coronavirus outbreak has toppled several storied retail brands, especially those focused on apparel, as many stores were forced to temporarily close and demand for new clothing dropped in a remote, less social environment.

  • Front-Back Model

    Front-Back Model

    THE FRONT-BACK MODEL: HOW DOES IT WORK? JAY GALBRAITH November 2005 The front-back structure, when it works, rests on three strong legs. First, there is a strong front-end focused on customer relationships, shopper insights and mastery of channels. Second, there is a strong global back-end based on products and brands, user insights and a global product development process. Less obvious and equally essential is strong leadership – the third leg linking the front and the back. Hewlett-Packard lags IBM because the company has not had the strong leadership to make the front-end an equal partner to the product lines. Carly Fiorina tried to be the link by herself, despite Board requests for a COO. Similarly when Procter & Gamble went to its Organization 2005, Jager tried to bridge the GBU-MDO gap by himself. He failed. He supported the GBUs, increased R&D spending and the MDOs were overwhelmed with new product launches. When Lafley took over, he immediately expanded top management capacity by adding a Vice-Chairman in charge of the MDOs. Driven in part by succession issues, Lafley has created four Vice-Chairmen in charge of clusters of GBUs (15 in total) and MDOs (7 in total). Jim Kilts, who is leading the P&G-Gillette integration, is the fifth Vice-Chairman. The result is sufficient enterprise management capacity to link the front and the back. The means by which this leadership is exercised is through the management processes and personal networks. The management processes are necessary because the front-back model is an interdependent system of profit centers.

  • Boutique Appeal: Against the Backdrop of Department Store Consolidation, Retailers and Investors Seek Specialty Shops

    Boutique Appeal: Against the Backdrop of Department Store Consolidation, Retailers and Investors Seek Specialty Shops

    Boutique Appeal: Against the backdrop of department store consolidation, retailers and investors seek specialty shops By Allison Collins November 8, 2013 To protect themselves from fickle consumers and uncertain economic times, retailers are using acquisitions of specialty shops as a form of insurance. Deals such as Gap Inc.’s (NYSE: GAP) $130 million purchase of retail chain Intermix Holdco Inc. in January allow middle-market companies to break into new segments of the market. (For more, see the video below with Hadley Mullin of TSG Consumer Partners.) Through September, 2013 has been a big year for department store deals, with about $9 billion in deal value according to data from Dealogic and provided by investment bank Robert W. Baird & Co. The year through September has seen nearly $21 billion in total retail M&A activity, which includes department store deals. The third quarter was especially strong for U.S. retail and consumer transactions, rising 112 percent from the same quarter in the previous year, according to PwC. “I see more opportunities in the specialty retail space than I do in the department store space,” says Al Ferrara, a partner at BDO USA LLP. Deals are coming from private equity firms that bought a retailer three to five years ago and are looking to exit, or the stores themselves, which may be looking to move into a specialty niche through acquisition, Ferrara says. Gap’s Intermix purchase underscores that idea. By buying Intermix, a group of clothing stores that sell women’s luxury apparel, the company enters an entirely new space.

    2.2.9. Procter & Gamble

    1 Dirty recyclables of a Procter & Gamble brand Credit: Les Stone P&G has made no commitments regarding collection, and neither calls for legislation in this area nor mentions support for DRS. It high- lights different targets on its US environmental sustainability webpage6 than on its UK equivalent.7 At the time of writing, there was no reference to the development of reuse-and-refill delivery models for P&G products on their UK site;8 on its US site, however, the company highlights its 2019 participation in test programmes with TerraCycle’s Loop project in New York and Paris,9 in which its brands Pantene, Gillette and Venus were included.10 When it comes to reduction of virgin-plastic use, P&G states alternative materials will only be used ‘when it makes sense’, and that lightweighting, increasing recycled content and moving towards more concentrated products will take priority.11 However, this does not appear to involve an absolute reduction in the total number of single-use plastic-packaging units. It is also unclear what instances the company will consider using alternative materials in, and which types of materials. In another document on the company’s brand criteria for 2030, it states it will achieve ‘a meaningful increase in responsibly-sourced bio-based, or recycled or more resource efficient materi- als’;12 however, this commitment is nebulous because it does not include an actual target, timeframe or more detail on what ‘responsi- bly-sourced’ means. When it comes to minimum recycled content, P&G talks about ‘continuously innovating with recycled plastic’,13 and, according to As You Sow, has a recycled-content target of 8% for 2025.14 This is a very modest increase – from 6.3% in 2018.
