NEW YORK – Revman International, a supplier of bed and bath products including Nautica, Vera Wang, Tommy Bahama, Eddie Bauer, Ellen DeGeneres and Laura Ashley, has been acquired by Delaware-based limited liability company Makei II.
Makei bought 100% of the outstanding share capital of Revman from Grupo Kaltex, which bought Revman in 2003 from Japanese retailer Aeon. Under the terms of the acquisition, the company will continue to operate under the Revman name.
Adolfo Kalach Mizrahi, the director of Makei, will be the chairman of the board of directors, and Moises Kalach Mussali will be the vice-chairman. Richard Roman, founder of Revman, will remain President and CEO.
“I am delighted with the new ownership structure,” said Roman. “Makei is firmly committed to the continued success and growth of Revman and its distinctive portfolio of lifestyle brands. They are determined to make Revman Inc. bigger and better than ever.
Revman’s existing brands will remain under new ownership, and the company will retain its current offices and showrooms on the 70th floor of the Empire State Building. Revman will unveil its new collections during Home Textiles Market Week in October.
“We’ve known Revman for over 20 years,” Mizrahi said. “We have always been passionate about the business and look forward to extending the partnership. “
