Hilco Streambank has been retained as the exclusive agent to sell the intellectual property and related assets of the Morgan Collection, Inc. (the "Company"). The assets are being sold through a general assignment for the benefit of creditors proceeding pending in New York.

Founded in 1999, Andrew Morgan Collection was an innovative textile design and manufacturing company. The Company's core collection included throws, blankets, bed scarves, bed wraps and other luxury accessories. Its patented line of removable box spring covers called the BedSok served as the company's flagship product. To complement the BedSok the company also created ChairSok and HeadSok as a part of the ModSok product line serving as slipcovers for lounge, dining and bedroom accessories. This strategy allowed the Andrew Morgan Collection brand to develop a strong presence in luxury hotels such as The Ritz Carlton, The Four Seasons, Fairmont Raffles, and Waldorf Astoria.

"The Andrew Morgan Collection presents a unique opportunity to establish an immediate presence in the bedding space for both retail and hospitality" said Jack Hazan, EVP of Hilco Streambank. "The copyrighted design library adds value to the deal, enabling the buyer to quickly manufacture and sell products to large bedding retailers. Further, the patented BedSok® product will give buyers a differentiated offering to open doors in hospitality and at retail." Mr. Hazan added.
