Children's clothing retailer Carter's is rebranding to appeal to a new generation of parents
Children's clothing brand Carter's is announcing a rebrand as it tries to keep up with the modern parent and its core customer base.
Carter's, a prominent player in the children's apparel industry, is set to undergo a significant brand overhaul, aiming to better resonate with Gen Z and millennial parents. This major rebranding effort, the company's first since 2000, encompasses a new marketing strategy, a refreshed logo, and a revamped visual identity. Central to the rebranding is Carter's new commitment to "let every child's light shine," alongside the introduction of novel marketing strategies, including a dedicated creator program and a collaboration with Outward Bound.
Established in 1865, Carter's has experienced a rollercoaster of changes over its 161-year existence. The company recently announced plans to close 150 stores and eliminate 300 jobs over the next three years, partly due to the financial repercussions of tariffs. Despite these challenges, Carter's has shown resilience, with its net sales growing for three consecutive quarters. In the second quarter of 2026, net sales surged by 5%, reaching $615 million.
