Wildwood Lamps and
Frederick Cooper have formed a partnership under which Wildwood will manufacture and market the Frederick Cooper line of high-end lighting.
Under the licensing agreement, Wildwood will distribute the Frederick Cooper product line from their Rocky Mount, N. C., factory. Customer service, sales and marketing will also be based out of this facility.
We are excited about the license agreement with Frederick Cooper and feel that this brand is a great complement, said Russ Barnes, vice president of Wildwood Lamps. We look forward to sharing Frederick Coopers designs with our large audience of retailers, designers and hospitality and corporate consumers who have come to expect only the best designers and brands under the Wildwood umbrella."
Prior to the
April High Point Market, the Frederick Cooper showroom will be relocated to a space adjacent to the Wildwood space in the 200 N. Hamilton building.
I believe that this partnership is a great fit. We have a shared view on the need to maintain high quality standards and great value for the luxury customer, said Christopher Mumford, CEO of Frederick Cooper. The top 300 best-selling Frederick Cooper lamps will continue to be marketed under the Frederick Cooper brand.
