Looks like Bob McKnight and the boys at Quiksilver have finally dumped Rossignol off on Chartreuse & Mont Blanc for EU30 million in cash and a EU10 million note, according to Forbes. As we mentioned before, it’s way less than originally planned, but at least they’re out.
“The completion of this sale represents the culmination of our efforts to eliminate our exposure to hardgoods manufacturing,” Chief Executive Robert McKnight Jr., said in a statement. “We’re delighted that we can now return to our roots, do what we do best and once again fully concentrate our efforts on our core apparel and footwear brands Quiksilver, Roxy and DC.”
And it looks like that is going to take an awesome amount of concentration.
