JustBrand Limited, the parent company behind heated and cooling apparel brands including Gerbing, AlphaCool, and ActionHeat, has acquired Venture Heat, a company that pioneered battery-heated gear. A strategic move by JustBrand Limited, the acquisition sees the Philadelphia-based company cement its position as North America’s biggest heated apparel company.
In line with the company’s broader goal of providing heated apparel across the retail, tactical, and industrial sectors, the move also underlines the next stage of growth for JustBrand Limited. “Venture Heat has been a respected innovator in this category for over two decades,” said Justin Silverman, Co-CEO of JustBrand Limited, in a statement. “Their team brings a wealth of product knowledge and technical expertise that will elevate our capabilities and help us move even faster to serve our customers and partners.”
