Newport’s Own Apparel Company Gets a Nationwide Shoutout
NEWPORT (R.I.), Oct. 30, 2020 – Newport apparel company, Bite Me Bait, has its clothing
featured on National Geographic’s “Port Protection: Alaska”.
Bite Me Bait has been delivering their hand-drawn designs on Newport’s main street but are now
getting attention from around the United States. This summer one of their cap designs was
featured on National Geographic’s fishing show, “Port Protection: Alaska”.
Jeff Marlowe, store owner and apparel designer, said, “Years back ‘Nat. Geo.’ reached out
asking if they could use our likeness.” This television debut increased their online sales
dramatically. “Before we would probably get 2 to 3 orders a day and after it aired we started
getting 20 to 25 a day,” said Marlow.
Visitors have also taken a liking to Bite Me Bait’s designs, Google user Emily Spanier posted,
“They’re fantastic quality and the graphics are just what I expected! I will be recommending Bite
Me Live Bait shop to everyone I know”.
