(MENAFN- PR Newswire)

The assets available for sale include the Aiwa trademarks registered in the U.S., the E.U., the U.K., France, and WIPO, domain names, including aiwa.co, patents, eCommerce storefronts, social media accounts, inventory, other related tangible assets, and contracts, including license agreements.

The iconic Aiwa brand was launched in 1951 and has been recognized over the past 70 years as a global leader in the manufacturing of high-quality Audio products, including speakers, headphones, and stereo systems. At its zenith, the Aiwa brand generated over $2 billion of annual revenues worldwide. Hilco Streambank CEO Gabriel Fried commented that, "not very often does an opportunity arise to acquire such a top tier brand in this industry. As increasingly more newcomers enter the consumer electronics market, owning a brand as recognizable as Aiwa would be a tremendous competitive advantage."

The sale and Hilco Streambank's retention are subject to court approval by the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Illinois.

Bid Deadline: October 4, 2021 at 1:00 p.m. Eastern Auction: October 6, 2021 at 1:00 p.m. Eastern
