Fossil was founded in 1984 at a time when
watches were created for function rather than fashion. The company sought
to fill this void in the market and began designing watches to act as a
fashion accessory. Fossil incorporated a fifties Americana design into the
brand image in an attempt to target value driven consumers. The concept
paid off and Fossil quickly emerged as the leader of a growing industry.
The
Company has grown from its original flagship product, FOSSIL brand
watches, into a diversified company. Several brands now fall under the
FOSSIL umbrella in addition to accessory lines featuring small leather
goods, belts, handbags and sunglasses. FOSSIL continues to improve its
place in the market based on its commitment to innovation and quality.
