  • 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.

  • Tretorn Debuts the André 3000 Benjamin Spring 2018 Footwear Collection
    TRETORN DEBUTS THE ANDRÉ 3000 BENJAMIN SPRING 2018 FOOTWEAR COLLECTION NEW YORK, NY – NOVEMBER 2, 2017 – Tretorn, the iconic Swedish footwear and outerwear brand and André 3000 Benjamin, a globally renown recording artist, songwriter, actor, designer and style icon, will debut the first-ever footwear collection by André 3000 Benjamin exclusively at ComplexCon on November 4th, 2017. The highly anticipated collection was inspired by André’s personal connection to the shoe as he was growing up in Atlanta. From André’s original sKetches to the completed line, the classic Nylite has been infused with the style icon's playful spirit and design sensibility. Until now, André’s prowess as a sKetch artist and painter has most famously been seen adorning the CDs inside the jewel cases from each album released by his Grammy Award winning, multi-platinum rap duo, Outkast. For the Tretorn collaboration, André has once again created original sKetches that are being integrated into the capsule’s branding - from his ant logo on the box, to sKetches on the tissue paper inside. “Growing up, we'd all put our personal stamp onto the blanK canvas of the Nylite and I'd sKetch out my own designs," says Benjamin. “This collaboration felt liKe fun because it brought me bacK to that place of personalizing these original designs.” “André’s playful spirit and bold style are highlighted in this spring capsule collection which brings Andre’s unique twist to Tretorn's classic footwear silhouettes.” said Natasha Fishman, EVP MarKeting ABG, owner of the Tretorn brand. The “I André Benjamin will not draw in class” capsule collection features 10 unique designs including updates to the classic Tretorn styles.

  • 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.
