PROFILE |
 |
VF Corporation is the name behind the names. The world's #1 jeans maker has 27% of the US market. Most of its sales come from jeans, including Lee, Rustler, Brittania, Chic, and Wrangler brands. Other VF brand names include Vanity Fair (lingerie), Jantzen (swimwear and sportswear), Jansport and Eastpak (backpacks), North Face (outdoor gear and apparel), Red Kap (industrial work clothes), and Healthtex (infants' and children's clothes). VF makes NIKE, MLB, NFL, and NBA apparel under license. Wal-Mart accounts for about 14% of sales. VF has been growing through the purchases of well-known brands; it bought Gitano from bankrupt Fruit of the Loom. Trusts established by founder John Barbey hold about 20% of the company.
