DollsLikeMe.com Sold to Nevada Investment Company

Las Vegas, NV, November 21, 2012 --(PR.com)-- Dolls Like Me, LLC., is under new ownership and has a new name.

The sale of the bankrupt company’s warehouse and online store were sold recently to the investment firm of 4 Kids Like Me, LLC. for an undisclosed amount.

The new holding company plans to keep the website open and retain several of the employees, representative Wanda Pendelton, of UB Today, said last week, but she didn’t provide specifics on how many or which employees will keep their jobs.

The new site debuted with a new URL, 4kidslikeme.com, on November 1.

Dolls Like Me grew from a home-based business to 20 employees and two warehouses before the collapse -- becoming the largest Black-owned toy company online. An audit confirmed that the company got into trouble when the bank closed the company's credit lines.

A warehouse employee said, "Dolls Like Me has been in trouble since the economy fell apart, but that the previous owner was determined to keep everyone employed -- which was probably her downfall." Founder Denise Robinson, did not return phone calls to confirm.

The deal to sell Dolls Like Me was revealed last week. The deal is intended to keep the website and warehouse operations open. Robinson has been retained as the marketing consultant and buyer.
