Eddie Bauer, Inc. has emerged from the Spiegel, Inc. Chapter 11 reorganization process under its newly formed parent company, Eddie Bauer Holdings, Inc. After nearly 35 years, the company is once again fully independent. The company was previously a wholly owned subsidiary of Spiegel, Inc., which filed for bankruptcy on March 17, 2003.


“We are extremely excited about our new status as a stand-alone company. The entire Eddie Bauer team worked hard during the Spiegel bankruptcy to build a strong platform for the future,” said President and Chief Executive Officer Fabian Mansson. “We streamlined operations, recruited new talent to strengthen the team, and renewed our commitment to providing quality apparel and accessories that reflect a modern outdoor lifestyle.”
