Fabian Couture Group, LLC, (FCG) one of the country’s largest wholesale providers of rental and retail formalwear and uniforms, announced last week the acquisition of Uncommon Chef, adding to the company’s growing uniform and career apparel business segment.
“Uncommon Chef is a clear leader in the food service apparel segment,” said Fabian Couture Group President and CEO Joe Ferreri. “Their chef and server apparel reflects the same innovation and high-quality standards FCG strives for in all our apparel. The brand is a perfect complement to the existing FCG Uniform line.”
“We believe we found the right business partner in FCG; one that would continue the work we spent 35 years building,” said founder and former Uncommon Chef CEO, Scott Verson. “There’s nothing common about the product we’ve developed or the people we are proud to outfit every day. FCG carries that same philosophy within the uniform and career apparel brands they produce.”
The combined entity will continue to support customers with an expanded apparel line serving foodservice, hospitality, and corporate institutions. The Uncommon Chef line will join a successful group of existing in-house and licensed brands managed by Fabian Couture Group, including Executive Apparel, Neil Allyn, Bruno Magli, Ben Sherman, and Couture 1910.
