It added that the Sugi design and development teams will “immediately align with Sergio Tacchini's apparel designers to ensure that all products merchandise well across categories and channels”.

Howard Cohen, Sergio Tacchini’s CEO, said he sees Sugi, led by Massimo Sinigaglia, as “perfectly aligned with our overall brand strategy as well as our goals for product quality and distribution. Their passion for brand building is a welcomed addition to the Sergio Tacchini family”.
