OXNARD, Ca., January 1, 2001 – In preparation for the expansion of an already successful product line, Hatch Gloves, the leading provider of gloves and tactical gear to Law Enforcement and Corrections, will now be known as Hatch Corporation. Hatch Corporation is poised for growth with the recent addition of Mike McCarey as Vice President of Sales and Marketing. Mike comes to Hatch with 10 years of experience in the Law Enforcement Industry. "It is an exciting time for us. We are looking forward to providing the Law Enforcement and Corrections community with high quality protective gear far beyond the boundaries of hand protection. Because we are so inspired by the recent successful launch of tactical gear, such as our CPX1000 Chest Protector, we will be launching Hatch into two completely new product categories early in 2001," says McCarey. Also in the works is a new and improved website at hatch-corp.com, to debut early in 2001.
