Legs 4 Life, LLC Acquires Venosan North America

June 1, 2011 By Bio-Medicine.Org

ASHEBORO, N.C., June 1, 2011 /PRNewswire/ — Legs 4 Life,
LLC, the parent company of Ames Walker International,
proudly announced today that it has acquired Venosan North America,
Venosan’s American brand and distributorship of Venosan’s Swiss
made stockings.  The acquisition enables Legs 4 Life to become
the best solution in the market for patient compliance by offering
the largest selection of high quality products at the most
affordable price.

“Combining Ames Walker’s expertise in e-commerce with Venosan
North America’s established position in medical channels was an
exciting undertaking,” said Kaki Zell, Vice President, Sales &
Marketing, Legs 4 Life, LLC. “This acquisition will provide greater
global brand awareness and reach, not only through the internet,
but through a stronger presence in the medical channels as
well.”

The extensive home office support and customer service that Ames
Walker is known for will be a value-add to the doctors and clinics
that are Venosan North America customers. These customers will also
have the ability to order all of Venosan and Ames Walker brands
through the same distributor.

“Compression hosiery is a rapidly evolving market,” added Zell.
“Now we are even better positioned to provide our customers
unparalleled service through innovative technology, co-marketing
strategies and cost efficiencies.”

Venosan North America was owned by the Salzmann Group, a
prominent Switzerland-based company within the compression hosiery
industry. They started Venosan North America in 1993 to have some
distribution presence in the US markets.  Ames Walker will
relocate operations to the Venosan North America headquarters in
Asheboro, NC where Venosan North America and Ames Walker will
operate as divisions of Legs 4 Life, LLC.

Graduated compression support hosiery is used to counteract the
effect of varicose veins, leg swelling, poor or reduced
