Sunless, Inc., and its principals, is the only team my family would entrust with the brand that bears our name.\u00a0 This brand embodies decades of commitment to quality products, education, and customer service, which Norvell customers have come to expect and deserve.\u201d According to Van Niekerk, \u201cThe customer benefits are compelling: the new organization offers our customers the very best in sunless tanning and related beauty products, drawing on the top skills and technology in formulation development, equipment design, manufacturing, branding and marketing. And the combined entity has the financial resources and ambition to drive exciting innovation and revenue growth in the self-tanner segment of the beauty market, across multiple channels and markets.\u201d Meranee Phing, a partner at The Riverside Company, added \u201cThe allure of a perfect bronze glow is timeless. This is an investment in the accelerating consumer trend toward UV-free tanning options, and the perfect time to leverage the brands\u2019 leadership position and consumer trust into the beauty industry.\u201d The Sunless, Inc. and Norvell organizations remain focused on supporting and serving their respective brands and customers, while the company reviews how to optimize integration of the business. All customer contacts remain as they were prior to the acquisition. Rick Norvell will continue to lead the Norvell business as a member of the Sunless, Inc. leadership team, and members of the Norvell family continue in their current roles.
