Lamps Plus Shutting Down Pacific Coast Lighting
David Shiller March 13, 2024
Lamps Plus, the largest lighting showroom chain in North America has announced it will close down Pacific Coast Lighting, its 45-year-old wholesale brand of primarily portable luminaires / lamps, later this Spring. Pacific Coast Lighting primarily sold to department stores, furniture stores, and hotels.
Pacific Coast Lighting and Lamps Plus both have a Kathy Ireland licensing deal, and Lamps Plus doesn’t expect any changes to its license relationships. In July, 2022, Nexus Capital Management, a private equity firm, made a strategic investment in Lamps Plus.
