What has been the biggest challenge you've faced so far?
Sean: "Cash flow is our biggest challenge at the moment. The company is 100% owned by Mon and me, and over the last few seasons production has grown quite a bit. Barneys, Shopbop, and Steven Alan are expanding the business in the US, but in Europe we went to 50+ points of sale over the past two seasons and in Japan we are around 100 points of sale. Financing the growth in production and the addition of resort and pre-fall has been a bit of a challenge; luckily our agent in Japan is more like a true partner/friend and helps us along when we need it."
