Ventura, CA (March 12, 2012) – Shaun Neff, Founder of leading active lifestyle brand Neff has been invited to New York City as a guest speaker for the Next Great Consumer Brands (NGCB) conference on March 14th at the NASDAQ Marketplace in Times Square. The annual event is prestigious gathering of private equity investors, venture capital firms and commercial lenders who invest in, lend to or otherwise finance the most exciting and fastest-growing privately held consumer brands.
 
The NGCB approached Neff to speak at this year’s conference due to the company’s immense growth in the last few years. Since December of 2009, the brand has expanded its distribution from 1,000 doors in 35 countries to approximately 4,500 doors in over 42 nations.

Under Shaun’s direction, Neff Headwear has successfully made the transition from a niche action sports brand to the mainstream fashion and lifestyle sector through the development of unique, quality product that appeals to a wide variety of demographics. With celebrity fans like Snoop Dogg, Lil Wayne, Scarlett Johansson, amd Justin Bieber, Neff’s distinct product has graced the pages of high fashion magazines and been featured on some of the most widely read websites in the world. 
 
“I am thrilled to take part in the NGCB conference in New York this week,” said Shaun, earlier this morning. “Our brand is rapidly expanding into new categories and diverse markets, yet we’ve been able to stay true to our loyal customers and have continued to run the business in a very grassroots manner. It’s an exciting thing to talk about, especially to such an esteemed audience of listeners.”
 
From selling tee shirts out of the trunk of his car to building a multi-million dollar business on a global scale, 33-year-old Shaun Neff and his namesake lifestyle brand have undoubtedly been established as one of the next great consumer brands and CEO’s to watch.
