King Louie Ceases Operations

After nearly 70 years of servicing the imprinted apparel industry, King Louie, Grandview, Mo., will cease operations on or about June 30, 2006. According to company management, King Louie International, which primarily produces domestic-made apparel, can no longer compete successfully in the marketplace with the influx of overseas manufacturers.
