Pennington, N.J., June 18, 2008 - Goebel Germany has recently announced that it will discontinue production of M.I. Hummel figurines and focus its resources on the company's home accessory brands.

"Goebel of North America (GNA) is committed in its support of Goebel Germany as they embark on the recently announced production restructuring. Despite current global economic pressures, GNA's business has remained stable and we are confident in the outlook for the second half of 2008.

Hummel brand will emerge from this restructuring significantly stronger" said Goebel of North America President Philip Ferrigno.
