Roman, Inc. and Downton Abbey Sign Licensing Agreement

Roman, Inc., a leader in the giftware industry, signed a licensing agreement with Downton Abbey® debuting January 2015, to design and distribute every day gift product and Christmas décor.

In 2015, Roman’s Downton Abbey line will offer an assortment of gift products based off of the hit television series. New offerings include items for everyday, such as wall plaques, frames, waterglobes, cloches/bell jars, night-lights and Cottage Garden music boxes. Roman will also offer ornaments for Christmas.

“We are very excited about the addition of Downton Abbey products to our licensed line,” said Dan Loughman, President and CEO of Roman. “This award-winning show appeals to multiple generations, and the formats we are introducing fill a void in the marketplace for a variety of retailers.”
