As part of the ongoing expansion plan, Lexington Company has been listed on Nasdaq, First North Stockholm earlier this year. The IPO was oversubscribed 21 times and the introduction was successful with a stock price increase of over 60% the first day on the Market.

Each of these locations have been welcomed into the local marketplace and now the brand is enjoying steady sale increases of Lexington products; online highlights include premium bedding, home accessories and fashion. Now is the time to develop a presence in the wholesale market through department stores and specialty boutiques throughout the Northeast. “We are excited for this new phase of development in the US market and currently seeking the right partner to help develop the brand direction at the wholesale level. It is a wonderful opportunity to collaborate and make a larger impression in the US marketplace,” says Kristina Lindhe, Founder, CEO and Creative Director of the Lexington Clothing Company.
