Midwest-CBK represents three industry-leading brands – Midwest Seasons, CBK and G! – with the best designs and highest quality product, backed by the most talented team and excellent infrastructure and drive for rapid and successful growth,” said Wehrs. “In addition to these outstanding brands, Midwest-CBK customers also have access to Noelle, the number one fashion line in the industry. These synergies present significant growth potential, and I look forward to continuing the success of the company and helping our customers succeed, starting with the winter market launch of exciting, new and most sought-after products available in the market.”
