Over the past nine months, the company focused on expanding its retail footprint and optimizing its existing business.

"Upon joining the organization, I initiated a full assessment of the business, developed a new strategy, organizational structure, and hired the right people capable of building a best-in-class retailer," Gillon explained.

  • The gross margin in the third quarter was 37.85%, representing an increase of 8.46% year-over-year.
