Genesco, a Nashville-based specialty retailer, has announced that it has closed the acquisition of the US assets of New York based Togast LLC, previously announced on December 18, 2019. Togast is a company that specialises in the design, sourcing and sale of licensed footwear. The acquisition is expected to be accretive to Genesco's fiscal 2021 earnings.

As planned, at closing, Genesco also entered into a new US footwear license agreement for men, women and children for Levi's, as well as renewed and extended its mens Dockers footwear license.
