Hilco Streambank was retained by Kid Brands as Kid Brands’ intellectual property consultant and sales agent in connection with the sale of certain of its brands. Kid Brands and certain of its subsidiaries are Debtors under Chapter 11 in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of New Jersey. Kid Brands manufactures and distributes infant and juvenile consumer products under numerous well-known brands, including Sassy, CoCaLo Kids Line and LaJobi.

The company is seeking approval to sell its Soft Home line of brands, which include CoCalo and Kids Line. The initial sales price is $1.35 million and is scheduled for a sale hearing on August 18 in the bankruptcy court, subject to higher and better bids at the sale hearing.
