Re: [RC] Miller Harness Co. - Maryanne Stroud Gabbani

Miller's is no longer working. Some of the products that they used to sell are now being marketed under the same brand names elsewhere, but they are being made by different companies, and some of the companies that used to make those brand name products are making the same products for another company. Clear as mud?

That isn't an exact quote, but it's 99% or so.? So they must have hit a hard patch and are retooling.

www.circlemcountry.com/news.html ?has the following message in news for 2003:
Weatherbeeta USA, Inc., Edison, N.J., announced today, January 20th, that it has acquired in totality the name, intellectual property and brands of long-time equestrian product supplier E.E.G./Miller Harness Company. Brands transferred in the sale include Crosby, Collegiate, Everest, Eisers, On-Course, Good Hands, Lancers, Roma, Pytchley and Lexington, among many others.



Roger Jackson, President of Weatherbeeta USA, comments, "We are delighted to be able to keep these strong, respected brands on the market. Miller's was a true institution in the horse world, with 75 years of service to the industry. Their products have always been well loved in the equestrian community, and it has been disappointing for everyone to see what has been exacted on their company over the last few years. We are very excited to take up the reins of these venerable brands, and re-launch and remarket them with minimum disruption and maximum benefit to our customers and our industry."
