Tim Cooper, MD OPS Limited, said: “From a 75 year family tradition of boot and shoemakers, I have always admired Oliver Sweeney – a leader not a follower. He designs classics with a unique and original British twist, and we are determined to cherish and evolve the brand's successful heritage.”
Michael Bennett said: “We have great confidence in this venture, in no small part due to our partnership with Tim Cooper, who has over 25 years experience in footwear to complement our experience in fashion retail and brands.”
Maurice Bennett, CBE said “I have always loved great product and design and I am excited about the acquisition of the Oliver Sweeney brand and the opportunity to develop it further.”
