Cole Haan
In 2018, USA Today published a list of at-risk businesses. Cole Haan made it there, although we are sure that this was not comforting at all. Things took a downturn for the company after it started to focus on athletic footwear instead of dress shoes. Apax Partners went on to buy the brand and spelled the end of its Nike comfort tech feature. Things have not gotten better for this company just yet.
FullBeauty Brands Holdings Corp
There are a few plus-size clothing brands under FullBeauty Brands Holding Crop. It is the owner of labels like Jessica London, Brylane Home, Woman Within, KingSize, Roaman’s, Ellos, and fullybeauty.com. In terms of its declining sales, the parent company lays the blame on Amazon. It saw a revenue drop of 30 percent in Q1 of 2017. Now that the executive lineup has been changed, there might yet be hope for it.
