Moose Knuckles CEO Noah Stern: “This corporate restructuring will allow me to concentrate on the areas that I love.”
Stern, added: “I could not be more proud of the global luxury brand we have built and the exceptional products we continue to bring to market. Our parkas and coats are the warmest in the world. As we expand our range into other seasons, it is my responsibility to continue to push the boundaries and create fashion products that are truly exceptional.”
Both Stern and Twik will retain their board seats and maintain their respective shares of ownership in the company. “We are impressed by his approach to business, luxury, culture and the entire fashion industry. He shares our belief that a culture-led business is essential to create memorable experiences for each client.”
