PEI is further highlighting its 20th anniversary as a publicly-traded company with a multi-brand campaign on the NASDAQ MarketSite Tower marquee in Times Square. During the month, a variety of videos for brands including Perry Ellis, Original Penguin, Rafaella, Laundry by Shelli Segal, Callaway golf apparel, PGA TOUR apparel, and others, will rotate on the 7-story high screen throughout the day. This represents approximately 10,000 square feet of illuminated signage and quite the anniversary present.
With global offices around the world, PEI continues to expand its fashion brands through new stores, expanded product offerings and attractive licensing agreements. In fact, the Company's New York-based brands, which include Perry Ellis and Original Penguin, will be moving into new offices where they can enjoy the increased productivity and idea-sharing opportunities of doing business together. It's an exciting move and to an exciting new location — the famous Hippodrome building, located at 1120 Avenue of the Americas.
Taking up residence on the 7th, 8th and 14th floors of the high-rise building, these powerhouse brands will now enjoy 96,350 square feet of space including new showrooms, conference rooms, executive offices, associate work spaces and more.
"This move marks a milestone for Perry Ellis," said Oscar Feldenkreis. "We are thrilled with the potential of this new location and look forward to collaborative results of consolidating our showrooms and offices into one location."
