HanesBrands is built as a house of everyday clothing brands, ranked by size inside the company itself. Hanes is the largest brand, Champion the second largest and Playtex the third largest, followed by Bali, Just My Size, Barely There, Wonderbra, L'eggs, C9 by Champion, Duofold, Beefy-T, Outer Banks, Sol y Oro, Rinbros, Zorba and Ritmo. Most of those names sell the garments bought most often and replaced most regularly: underwear, socks, t-shirts, activewear and intimate apparel. A portfolio like that spreads risk, because each brand holds its own shelf space and customer loyalty while the parent supplies the manufacturing and distribution behind all of them.
The company's scale matches the portfolio. HanesBrands employs 50,000 people internationally, has companies in various parts of Europe and Eastern Europe including the United Kingdom, Italy, Germany, France and Spain, and recorded sales revenue of 4.4 billion dollars for 2007. Its two main competitors are named as Fruit of the Loom and Jockey International, the other large American basics makers.
