Pro Feet, Inc., a national leader in manufacturing and distributing
socks for public safety, military and team sports, has acquired Execusox, a Hickory,
N.C.-based company specializing in socks for public safety and postal uniforms. The
transaction was completed on March 14, 2014.

The acquisition was prompted by the retirement of Execusox owner Tom Cullop, who
founded the company in 1992.

“We’re grateful for the opportunity to serve the Execusox customers,” said Taylor
Wilson, Pro Feet President. “Their services align closely with what we already offer. It’s
an almost seamless transition for Execusox customers.”

Wilson believes Execusox customers will appreciate broader product selection, multiple
methods for ordering, faster turnaround times and Pro Feet’s strong customer service.
Additionally, Pro Feet can provide custom orders as well as small-quantity fulfillment.
Execusox customers will benefit from Pro Feet’s national sales team, giving them the
opportunity to meet directly with a representative for product demonstrations.

“My wife and I have been talking about retirement for quite some time,” Cullop said. “We
have always appreciated how Pro Feet operates, so we decided to approach them
about taking over Execusox. We believe they will take good care of the customers
we’ve worked with for so many years.”
