GLEN ROCK, N.J. - December 21, 2019 - (Newswire.com)

R2 Venture Solutions Inc. and Townecraft Homewares are proud to announce the acquisition of the Kitchen Fair® brand from Regal Ware, Inc. Townecraft Homewares and Kitchen Fair will operate as separate and independent brand companies, with Townecraft Homewares serving as the managing operational entity. Bringing together these two industry icons creates a global distributor base of over 1500 independent sales consultants representing American made products.

Kitchen Fair is a successful marketer of unique, high-quality cast aluminum products sold through in-home show of flavors demonstrations, where friends gather to have fun and learn how to use the time-saving cookware while discovering new and exciting ways to prepare healthy meals.

Kitchen Fair has been part of the Regal Ware family of brands since 1984. Today, Regal Ware designs and builds the low-water, low-oil Kitchen Fair cookware product in their West Bend, WI facility and will continue their support of the Kitchen Fair brand by continuing to manufacture the best products possible.

“This transaction represents a perfect combination of a win-win-win for the Kitchen Fair organization, Townecraft and Regal Ware,” said Jeff Reigle, President and Chief Executive Officer of Regal Ware. “Townecraft is the logical and right partner to bring their expertise in the direct sales market to grow the brand and offer ongoing support to the sales organization to further their business.”

Since Townecraft’s acquisition in May 2018, by R2 Venture Solutions Inc., it has undertaken a transformational and evolutionary change to the paradigm to position it for growth and expansion – domestically and internationally. Under the leadership of Rafael A. Ramirez President & CEO, Townecraft Homewares has seen double-digit growth in distributor onboarding and sales revenues, along with several new and complementary products to its core product portfolio.

“Kitchen Fair presents a strategic distribution channel for our products in the Mexican, Central & South American and Caribbean markets creating a dynamic world of opportunities for Kitchen Fair’s independent sales consultants.
