Calling their clothing line "The Great American Brand," Master P and his son Romeo
plan on proving exactly that by making their clothes more available to
families. The father and son duo have signed a deal to make the fairly
priced line is targeted at teens available at Wal-Mart stores nationwide. “This is the makings of a great partnership with the number-one
retailer in the world,” said P & Romeo, continuing
“Wal-Mart is making a lot of opportunities available to minority-owned
companies that are ready to do business with a big corporation.
Together we’re making it cool to shop for clothes at Wal-Mart.”
The line that already sells $9 dollar shirts and and $20 jeans, will launch a new women's line as part of the deal with Wal-Mart. “We use the same factories and the same materials as Sean John,
Rocawear, and Ed Hardy,” said Master P. “These are quality clothes
you'd normally find at a department store like Macy's. Now you can pick
up the same high-end fashion at an affordable price."
