MINT DESIGN TURNS ROUND BUSINESS AFTER MBO
The recession is proving a breath of fresh air for globally inspired jewellery and accessories brand Mint Design.
The company was founded in 2004, initially as a younger sister wholesale only brand to women's clothing and accessory retailer East. A Mint Design clothing line was trialled was but dropped after two seasons leaving the company to concentrate on jewellery and accessories although a range of holiday wear kaftans, to match bags and sarongs has recently been reintroduced.
Detailed description:
After restructuring at East, Mint Design launched a successful MBO from its parent company in May 2008 when the business was bought by a group of investors including some of the original Mint personnel. Since then a strong brand vision has been developed and honed and the dynamic new team is beginning to see the business flourish.
The new board consists of five directors who between them have a wealth of experience in fashion and accessory design, wholesale, the retail sector as well as advertising, marketing and design.
Four of the new investors are actively involved in the day to day running of the business and are headed up by Brand & Executive Director Peter Kirvan who worked in advertising for over 20 years before moving to Devon to run a highly successful ceramics business. Peter brings a strategic brand.
