Target

Kukdong, founded in 1967, is a sportswear and knitwear OEM manufacturer producing in Indonesia and Mexico for export, with Nike and H&M among its main customers.

Deal rationale

Chris F&C said it was extending from design and marketing into production for vertical integration, expecting a stable production base and better cost competitiveness. Money Today cited COVID-era Southeast Asian factory shutdowns and rising input costs, and noted plans to produce the newly acquired Hydrogen brand at Kukdong's Mexico plant for North America.
