Summer Infant(R) and Carter's(R) Announce Licensing Partnership

"We are excited to partner with Carter's, a trusted brand name that resonates with virtually all parents today, to bring contemporary and innovative designs to the juvenile market," said Jason Macari, President and CEO of Summer Infant. "The Elephant Parade and Love Bug Gear Collections exemplify our ability to marry the distinctive look and feel of Carter's apparel to new and unique platforms. Both Carter's and Summer are dedicated to providing essential products that enrich the lives of parents and their babies."

The Elephant Parade and Love Bug Gear Collections reflect the fresh, comfortable and emotional strength of the Carter's brand, coupled with Summer Infant's expertise in product innovation. These collections and the Infant Health products offer caregivers the latest in design, function and ease-of-use and are fresh alternatives to products currently on the market.

"Parents choose Carter's as their first brand for newborn babies. Our commitment to understanding and delivering what really matters to mom and dad has been our main focus and guides our business," said Joe Pacifico, President of Carter's.

The Elephant Parade and Love Bug Collections were designed to bring style and function to consumers. Cheerful styling details, unique features, great embroideries and fresh color palettes are all part of this product lineup.

Performance and fashion are common features throughout the Infant Health program.

Designed with this in mind, the Deluxe Grooming and Health Care kit is a "must have" mom registry kit that contains everything a new baby would need in a stylish yet practical storage case.
