best customer service in the industry.<br />

The company is headquartered in Wisconsin with global sales of £1 billion and is led by Edgar Huber who was named CEO & President in August 2011. In 2002, Lands’ <strong>End</strong> was acquired by Sears Holding Corporation and we form part of the<br />

Sears group. Outside of America the company has 3 landed locations; UK, Germany & Japan.<br />

The current product range includes Women’s, Men’s, Kids, Footwear, Outerwear, Cold Weather Accessories, Sleepwear, and Swimwear. A new, more fashion sensitive, range sub-branded as ‘Canvas’ will be available to the international<br />

markets. As part of Lands’<strong>End</strong> strategy to develop retail partnerships Lands’ <strong>End</strong> also appears on Debenhams & House of Fraser websites.<br />
