“We are thrilled to partner with such a dynamic brand,” said Liz Haesler, PCNA’s chief merchandising officer. “In terms of combining innovation and design with lifestyle, Skullcandy is an absolute leader. This partnership allows our distributors to provide their customers with incredible products from one of the best retail audio brands in the world.”

Skullcandy is a popular lifestyle brand inspired by music and board sports. The company operates on the mantra, “We don’t want you to listen to music.
