It’s Mitt Romney‘s former company.

Bain Capital, a private-equity firm co-founded by the Republicans’ losing 2012 presidential candidate (he left the company in 2002 to pursue his political career), is buying a majority stake in Canada Goose, the Toronto-based maker of ubiquitous, puffy winter jackets. Bain’s success at wringing profits from the companies it acquires has been mixed.
