According to Randa, revenues for the combined companies will be greater than US$1bn this year.
Haggar created the first ready-to-wear, finished bottom, pre-cuffed pant in 1938, and in 1980 began production of sport coats, vests, and custom fit suits. Today, the company has more than 80 branded brick-and-mortar retail locations, a dedicated direct-to-consumer e-commerce platform, and its products are sold in over 10,000 stores throughout North America.
Haggar also owns Montreal-based Tribal, thought to be the largest women’s sportswear supplier to the specialty boutique market in North America, with over 2,400 active accounts.
