“As the fourth-generation owner, it’s a great honour to celebrate 100 years of New Era Cap and the legacy started by my grandfather, Ehrhardt Koch,” said Chris Koch, President and CEO or New Era Cap. “With humble beginnings in Buffalo, NY, where we still proudly call home to our global headquarters, the company has evolved from a small headwear company into a premier international lifestyle brand that includes apparel and accessories. We are extremely proud of our heritage and excited about the momentum we have as we embark on our next 100 years.”
