Deckers Outdoor Corp. said it will move Irvine-based sandal maker Sanuk USA LLC to its headquarters in Goleta to help “streamline brand operations and reduce infrastructure costs.”
Sanuk has 45 employees and leases a 48,000-square-foot building at 64 Fairbanks.
Its revenue for the second quarter of its fiscal year 2016 decreased 9% to $17.3 million, compared to $19 million during the same period last year. The drop was driven by a decline in wholesale sales and was partially offset by an increase in direct-to-consumer sales. It plans to post third quarter results on Feb. 4.
Deckers bought Sanuk for $120 million from founder Jeff Kelley in 2011. Its portfolio of brands includes UGG, Teva, Ahnu, Hoka One One, and Koolaburra.
