North Wales, PA, June 20, 2007 – Tafford Uniforms, a leading supplier of nursing uniforms, shoes, and medical accessories, today announced that two students have been awarded the inaugural Tafford Uniforms Nursing Scholarship. The scholarship program, announced in March 2007, was created by Tafford Uniforms to support the education and training of nursing students and help address the critical nursing shortage facing the healthcare industry in the United States.

This semester’s winners of $1,000 scholarships were selected from an amazing group of applicants who will soon be serving in the nursing profession. The Tafford Uniforms Scholarship Committee received over 6,000 completed applications from approximately 1,600 schools across the country. Michael Allbritton, a single father with primary custody of three children, returned to school after raising a special-needs child. Allbritton was awarded the scholarship to assist in his pursuit of a BSN degree from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock. In his application, Allbritton stated, “With the opportunity presented, I am committed to succeeding, regardless of time, effort, or difficulty.”

Aischa Jackson, single mother to two children, the second recipient announced today, returned to nursing school at 35 to achieve her dream of becoming a nurse. “I am also aware of the great shortage of nurses, and see an opportunity to grow within this field in the future,” said Jackson. She hopes to graduate from the RN program at Jefferson State Community College, where she has earned a 4.0 grade point average, in order to help care for the sick and work in the medical mission field through her church.

“We are thrilled to be able to give back to the nursing community through our scholarship program,” said Gene S. Godick, CEO and co-owner of Tafford Uniforms. “Michael and Aischa are two shining examples of the future of the nursing profession and we are proud to play a small part in helping them reach their goals.”

Tafford Uniforms anticipates awarding two (2) $1,000 scholarships twice per year on an ongoing basis. Students eligible to apply must be enrolled in an accredited nursing program towards an associate’s (or LPN, LVN), bachelor’s (BSN), or master’s (MSN) degree in nursing.

New Ownership for the Tafford Brands of Uniforms and Scrubs

Startup Company Acquires the Assets of Tafford Manufacturing.

The New Tafford Uniforms to Make Significant Investment in Design, Inventory, Customer Service.

North Wales, PA, January 16, 2007 – Tafford Uniforms, a leading supplier of nursing uniforms, shoes, and medical accessories, today announced that it had purchased the assets of Tafford Manufacturing in a sale under Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code. Formed specifically for the acquisition of the Tafford assets, Tafford Uniforms acquired the assets from Tafford Manufacturing’s former lender, free and clear of any liens or claims against Tafford Manufacturing. Accordingly, the new company has no liability for Tafford Manufacturing's debts. The purchase was effective as of November 30, 2006 and the Company expects to mail its first catalog this month.

The new Tafford Uniforms owns the Tafford, Scrubs Xpress, Cotton Scrubs & Co., and Best of Scrubs brands. Over the past twenty years, millions of customers have turned to the Tafford brands for the best in styling, quality, customer service, and value. While the financial problems of the old Tafford Manufacturing led to product shortages, customer service issues and quality problems, the new company is investing heavily to restore the luster to the Tafford brand.

“We are pleased to have acquired the Tafford assets,” said Gene S. Godick, chief executive of Tafford Uniforms. “Despite the financial difficulties of the old Tafford Manufacturing, we believe that there is significant value in the Tafford brand. The problems experienced by the old company will not be fixed overnight, but we look forward to demonstrating our commitment to quality, service, and value to the nearly six million nurses, nursing aides, medical assistants and other healthcare workers in the US.”

The new Tafford Uniforms is led by owners Gene S. Godick and Marc Kohn. Godick, who serves as CEO of Tafford Uniforms joins the Company from Verticalnet, where he was EVP and Chief Financial Officer. Godick took Verticalnet public, led the 2003 balance sheet restructuring, and raised $300 million in capital. As COO, Kohn will draw upon his 13 years of experience in the nursing uniforms industry. Since opening his first uniforms store in 1994, Kohn grew his business to become a chain of four stores servicing Philadelphia and New Jersey. Kohn’s Scrub Shop stores will now also be owned by Tafford Uniforms.

“Amongst my customers, the Tafford brand has always stood for quality and value,” said Kohn. “We realize that the old Tafford Manufacturing did not always deliver the best selection or customer experience. Today, the new Tafford Uniforms offers the same great quality and design that our customers have come to know and love, and we are investing heavily to ensure that our customers have the selection and level of service to match.”
