Why do they have so much money? They have not fought a war in over 100 years.


@granddi HUH?  Where did all of our manufacturing go?  Where does almost everything you buy come from?  So they have our money sewed up. Literally!

And the war has already been fought and won and we lost.  And like when the Native Americans sold Manhattan for a few trinkets?  We did exactly the same thing here.

Exactly and it usually means when a company is sold that means the BRAND NAME is what is sold, not their ingredients unless it's part of the patented name. An example of that type of thing would be Ojon.

They will probably keep Josh and Brent, at least for a while.  They'll become mascots for the brand - if they aren't already.

It was a private equity transaction with a European firm. A quick skim through their transactions doesn’t look like they’re sheltering Chinese funds. The sky is not falling.

This is the same PE firm that backs Nest.

Anyone know what will the Beekman boys be doing after they sell?

I'll stick with Goat Milk Stuff. Never bought into their pitch.

Re: Beekman sells it's company !!!

Interesting article on Yahoo. Well we shall see, nothing stays the same.

 

As a side note I was in Costco this past weekend and purchased Australian Botanical Goat Milk Soap. $14.99 for 8 bars that is also triple milled like Beekman.  I purchase two boxes, because with Costco things do not always hang around. When they are gone they are really gone.

 

Worse case scenario I can always return to Goat Milk Stuff.
