Fresh and innovative designs, great value, and friendly and knowledgeable people – this is Keren Hart!
We are a dynamic and growing apparel partner to many of North America’s retailers. With a creative
team that has a long history of developing ladies clothing lines and private label programs, we specialize in
women’s apparel for the retailer whose customer enjoys a casual but trendy lifestyle.
Keren Hart was established in the 1980's by Malcolm Zwick and James Storch. Various generations of the
Zwick family have been in the retail business since 1899. Our grandparents started in the clothing business
in 1899 opening their first retail space in 1900. Their sons expanded to multiple stores which included a
large selection of children's clothing, women's clothing, men’s clothing and shoes. At one time we even
sold furniture.
In the 1980’s the decision was made to transition from a retail operation to a wholesale business, thus
creating Keren Hart. Due to the tremendous growth of the business, Keren Hart has moved three times
into larger warehouses. We now operate out of a 15,000 square foot complex located in the same town
where it all began in 1899 – Herrin, Illinois.
The key to our success has been, and will continue to be, Customer Service. Seven employees were
honored by the national Chamber of Commerce for serving a total of over 300 years. We had one associate
who served 63 years! Today, Keren Hart has five active owners involved in its day to day operations.
Because of this “hands on approach” by the owners, you will never be “passed off” to someone else or
treated like just another account number. We are a family owned and operated company that treats our
customers like family.
Along with superb customer service, Keren Hart brings an exceptional variety of affordably priced women’s
clothing to retailers. Our products run the gamut of everything from basic t-shirts to woven shirts
and pants to jackets and outerwear, all priced with the consumer in mind. Our hands-on approach by
management ensures timely delivery of orders to the stores, as well as accuracy and quality control in filling
orders.
