The people at Amerex know that when "it's raining, it's pouring," their profits are soaring. The company makes outerwear for men, women, and children. Founded in 1946, it has licensing agreements with brands such as Jones New York, London Fog, OshKosh, Mudd, and Wrangler. Amerex also produces outerwear under its own labels (1 Madison, Weather Tamer) as well as sportswear (Adolfo) and swimwear (Isababies, Bombshell). The manufacturer's products are sold in major department stores and specialty retailers throughout the US and Canada. Chairman and President Ira Ganger bought out retiring partner Fred Shvetz in 2006.
