Italian jeanswear and sportswear label Jeckerson recently filed for a Company Voluntary Agreement (CVA) to settle its debt after a turbulent year amid the coronavirus pandemic, when licensee and longtime partner C&S stepped in to guarantee production and distribution.
The partnership between insolvent Jeckerson and C&S is a bright spot during a year that revealed strained relationships between brands and manufacturers. As Jeckerson’s official licensee in Italy and Europe, the company has been manufacturing for the brand since it launched in 1995.
“What ties us to Jeckerson is a history of excellence which began long ago,” C&S group said in a statement. “We have been taking care of their collections for more than 15 years, even before we became the brand’s licensee. Today as then, our commitment is to give value to the heritage of quality and style that has always characterized the brand.”
