History
We were founded on May 28, 1996, in Zagreb, Croatia with the vision of managing and distributing fashion brands. For the next 18 years, we served as the distributor for the French brand Lacoste, along with several other notable brands such as Calvin Klein, Speedo, Nautica, and Juicy Couture. In 2016, we partnered with Zalando to invest in the tech company BuyingShow, in which we currently hold the majority of shares. In 2008, we took on the task of developing and re-launching the iconic Italiansportswear brand, Ellesse, which was distributed worldwide. From 2010, we were based in Berlin, Germany. In 2019, we launched one of the largest multi-brand showrooms in New York City, catering to a distribution network of over 1,000 retail locations across the United States. Over the past five years, our primary distribution brand has been Philippe Model Paris. In 2011, we discovered the Canadian outerwear brand Moose Knuckles Canada. For five years, we held ownership of the brand in international markets by forming a joint venture with the trademark holders. Our main showroom was in Milan, Italy. In 2021, we acquired the luxury streetwear brand AlphaStyle, and the following year, we invested in another luxury streetwearlabel, Societe Illegale. Today, both brands are licensed to third-party companies, and we provide them with advisory services and strategic sales support. Our HQ is in Miami.
