Sequential Brands Group Announces New Partnerships for the Emeril Lagasse Brand

New Emeril Lagasse Power AirFryer 360 Available Now


NEW YORK, Feb. 21, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Sequential Brands Group, Inc. (Nasdaq:SQBG) today announced an exciting new partnership for the Emeril Lagasse Brand with Tristar Products, Inc. to create multiple new products including small kitchen electrics, grills and grilling accessories. The products will debut online via digital and social media and on TV through “Emeril Everyday,” an infomercial filmed in front of a live audience, garnering over 20 million impressions per week across the country.

The first product released under the partnership is the Emeril Lagasse Power AirFryer360. The multi‐cooker represents the new generation of all‐purpose countertop kitchen appliances. The stainless steel Power AirFryer 360 is designed to replace nine different appliances. 12 pre-set cooking functions including air fry, rotisserie, dehydrate, bake, broil, toast, roast, make pizza, slow cook, bagel, keep warm, and reheat reflect Chef Emeril’s belief that every home kitchen deserves an oven that offers a wide range of custom cooking capabilities. 

Keith Mirchandani, President & CEO of Tristar Products, Inc., said, “It’s an incredible honor to collaborate with America’s most beloved chef. This partnership has not only produced the latest, state-of-the-art technology in kitchen electrics, it marries a very old concept – delicious, heartwarming meals – with cutting edge innovation, which is extremely fast and precise. It’s not only changing the way we cook and eat with our families every day, it’s going to transform the small kitchen electrics category forever. Emeril’s sleek, countertop unit is the ideal product for our first roll-out, and we look forward to all future collaborations.”

The Power AirFryer360 can be purchased at emerilairfryer360.com and will be available at major retailers throughout the country in Summer 2019.

“I am proud to offer a unique machine that functions as nine products in one for the at home chef, as the first of many excellent products to come from our partnership with Tristar,” says Chef Emeril. “The seamless functionality of the machine with 12 preset features helps take the guess work out of cooking- all with a simple turn of the dial. Now everyone can achieve evenly cooked, delicious results right in their own kitchens!”

In addition to the new partnership with Tristar, the Emeril Lagasse brand has also recently expanded its merchandise assortment with kitchen textiles through its new partnership with Park B.Smith, a division of Aimee Lynn. This partnership marks the brand’s return into kitchen textiles and includes products such as oven mitts, kitchen towels and aprons. The brand also recently launched kitchen floor mats in partnership with Home Dynamix available at TJ Maxx and HomeGoods.

“Expanding the Emeril Lagasse brand into more categories and more retail locations is an important part of our growth strategy for the brand,” said Home Division President, Carolyn D’Angelo. “We’re excited to launch these new product categories and bring to market the high-quality culinary products consumers expect from the brand.”
