By ttnews | November 25th, 2009

The world headquarters for Pure Fishing has moved to a new
office in The Carolina Research Park.  The location at 7 Science Court,
Columbia, SC, 29203, is now the home for global administration, durables
product management and sales and marketing for the Americas.

Pure Fishing is one of the largest global fishing tackle manufacturers with
a collection of the most recognized family of fishing tackle brands in the
world. Columbia became the Pure Fishing headquarters in 2008.  The original
Shakespeare facility served as the interim location for Pure Fishing until
the new location was selected.

³Completing the relocation process of a global headquarters for a company as
large as Pure Fishing is exciting and we value the support of our parent
company Jarden Corporation, our Columbia-based team, and local partners in
making this significant company headquarters transition a reality,² said
John Doerr, President & CEO of Pure Fishing.  ³By purchasing this building,
we are demonstrating a commitment to the long-term success of our
organization.  Our coworkers in Columbia now have facilities to perform
their responsibilities in an environment that allows them to continue
creating great products and programs to strengthen our partnerships with our
anglers, customers, vendors and pro staff.  We are eager to be part of the
Columbia business community and look forward to becoming an active
contributor.  Spirit Lake, Iowa remains our largest site and we have
confidence in the team to drive fishing line and bait innovation that will
continue to be the best in the world.²

According to Doerr, the former Shakespeare building will become home to
Jarden Applied Materials. Pure Fishing is currently recruiting for
additional Columbia-based roles to be filled in 2010.
