NEW YORK, -- Greg Norman Collection announced that consolidated net sales increased 14.5% from 2005 with a 14% increase in its core golf channel and a 25% increase in its international business.

Additionally, the company increased its offering of innovative performance fabrics which drove sales increases across all distribution channels, most importantly in its golf segment where the company's sales have doubled since 2002.

"2006 was a terrific year for GNC," said Suzy Biszantz, Chief Executive Officer and President. "The introduction of Signature Series exceeded our expectations, not only did the product sell-in well, its performance at retail was excellent."
