Not a one-size-fits-all approach.

We know the only constant is change. Our industry and its markets are ever-evolving, and KBL Group has worn many hats since our humble beginnings in 1985. 

Back then, you knew us best as Crystal Kobe, a domestic importer and distributor of sweaters for women. Later on, the company added Kobe, a brand created for full figured women, followed by a foray into kids sportswear.

In 1993, after observing immense opportunity in a direct-to-factory business model, we separately established KBL Group. By the turn of the century, KBL had acquired Crystal Kobe and its international network of factories.

In 2019, we then merged into the umbrella of the VM Group based out of Hong Kong, allowing us access to their extensive supply chain network, creating who we are today: The new KBL Group is set to strategically propel our efforts into the future.
