ACME Partners Completes the Sale of Northloom Apparel

DALLAS (February 18, 2026): ACME Partners today announced the sale of Northloom Apparel, a portfolio of performance and lifestyle clothing brands, to a strategic acquirer. The transaction represents a successful realization within the firm's consumer apparel vertical.

During the partnership, Northloom grew from a single regional brand into a three-brand portfolio, tripled revenue, and built a direct-to-consumer channel that now accounts for the majority of sales. The company also established international distribution in eight markets.

The value creation plan concentrated on brand discipline and supply chain strength: focused product lines, investment in fit and fabric development, a rebuilt fulfillment operation, and marketing measured against customer lifetime value rather than short-term volume.

The firm views the outcome as a validation of its consumer apparel thesis, which favors brands with genuine product differentiation over trend-driven labels, and intends to remain an active investor in the vertical.

Terms of the transaction were not disclosed.
