Glen Raven, N.C. – Specialty fabrics supplier Glen Raven, Inc. has unveiled the name for its new distribution division: Tri Vantage, LLC.

The new unit is the result of Glen Raven’s May 2007 acquisition of longstanding business partners The Astrup Company and John Boyle & Company, two major distributors of fabrics, hardware and finishing supplies for the awning, marine, sign and casual furniture industries.

“We are very pleased to move forward as one united company under the new Tri Vantage name,” said Harry Gobble, president and general manager, Tri Vantage.

Tri Vantage employs more than 300 people in 19 offices and distribution centers across North America. The company is launching a new corporate website this month – www.trivantage.com - with an expanded online catalog and a new online purchasing system.
