Southern Tide Partners With WestPoint Home To Launch New Home Products Collection
GREENVILLE, S.C., Oct. 16, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Southern Tide and WestPoint unveiled a new collection of Southern Tide Home Products at September's 2012 New York Home Fashions Market Week.
The companies have entered into a licensing agreement whereby WestPoint Home and Southern Tide will design, create, and market high-quality sheets, bath towels, comforters, blankets and related home textiles carrying the Southern Tide name.
The new line reflects elements of Southern Tide's popular nautical patterns, classic plaids, solids and stripes. The initial product designs include two collections – the Southern Tide Collection and the TopSail Collection.
Images of both collections can be viewed at southerntide.com/pages/news.html.
The home products collection will begin shipping in early 2013 and will be available at select retailers and on the Southern Tide website.
"Partnering with WestPoint was a natural fit, since they are known for their design, quality production, and marketing expertise, all of which have been developed since the company's origins nearly 200 years ago," said Jim Twining, CEO of Southern Tide.
Customers can purchase Southern Tide apparel products in more than 600 fine retailers in more than 42 states across the country, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands, as well as on Southern Tide's online store at southerntide.com.
