Leading licensed apparel fashion licensee, Brands In, has created a new division within its business, to be known as Brands In Merch, which will support the growth of the last 12 months, as well as its ongoing European and UK expansion.
Established with its own entity, Brands In Merch serves as both a wholesale stock programme and Print on Demand business, enabling independent and e-commerce retailers to sell new properties and artists without having to commit to holding large volumes of stock at any given time.
The division will initially focus on building new key accounts and distributors across the Brands In area footprint, forge new and sustainable relationships, as well as maintain the strong partnerships already in place. Many of these have been established, based on Brands In’s ability to manage its supply and delivery cycle working with locally sourced product and speed-to-market.

When they tick off the great safeties that have come out of Southern Cal, why is Tim McDonald never in the conversation?
Ronnie Lott is arguably the greatest safety the NFL has ever seen.
He has a bust in Canton, as does Troy Polamalu. Lott was a two-time first-team all-decade selection in the 1980s and 1990s and both Polamalu and Joey Browner were second-team choices. Browner was voted one of the 50 Greatest Minnesota Vikings and Mark Carrier, the 1990 NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year, was voted one of the 100 Greatest Chicago Bears. Lott went to 10 Pro Bowls, Polamalu eight and Browner and Dennis Smith six apiece.

Anyone who offends the Chinese people should prepare to pay the price, was the blunt message from China s Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Hua Chunying when asked recently about a number of Western companies facing a boycott after they expressed concern over alleged human rights abuses in Xinjiang province.
H&M was the main target, but the backlash also hit Nike, Adidas and Puma - all members of the Better Cotton Initiative (BCI), a non-profit group promoting sustainable cotton production.
Advocates are calling for the city of Atlanta, as well as companies that benefited from the former brick company, to preserve the site.
Earlier this year, organizers managed to stop construction of a fuel transfer station, but the land is still privately owned.
City Councilman Dustin Hillis represents the area. He says Atlanta passed up multiple opportunities to purchase the land over the years.
“At the end of the day, I want to see a memorial park, and in the land that is not in the floodplain, there’s a chance to look at an eyes on the park-type housing development that contains affordable housing, things like that,” Hillis said.
