NEW YORK, NY / ACCESSWIRE / January 18, 2016 / Inkkas, the New York-based handmade shoe brand, is pleased to announce their partnership with Marcus Lemonis, American businessman, television personality and philanthropist. To inaugurate their partnership, Inkkas will appear on the January 19th episode of The Profit, airing on CNBC at 10 p.m ET/PT.

Inkkas was selected by Lemonis to appear on this popular show on CNBC late last year. The show helps small businesses navigate the many obstacles they face as they try to break into often very competitive industries. Lemonis is widely known as a business guru who has successfully launched businesses across many industries from the automotive sector to the restaurant industry to outdoor gear. Fans of the handmade shoe brand can tune in to participate in the Inkkas journey as they gain top-level insight from Lemonis and give viewers an inside look at the challenges that come with being a startup shoe brand in New York City - one of the world's premier fashion capitals.

Inkkas is a startup global footwear brand based in New York City that was founded in 2012 by Dan and Dave Ben-Nun and David Malino. The brand sells shoes with designs inspired by various regions of the world including Peru, Morocco, Brazil and Japan. Inkkas shoes are primarily produced in South and Central America and they are sold in stores such as J. Crew and Whole Foods in the US and over 20 countries worldwide.

Marcus Lemonis is known as the "business turnaround king" and star of CNBC's prime time reality series The Profit, but his rise to stardom is no Hollywood construction. Lemonis' notoriety has been established by his tenacity, shrewdness and determination. His biggest success is as the chairman and CEO of Camping World, the nation's largest RV and outdoor retailer, and Good Sam, the world's largest RV owner's organization. While some may rest on their laurels with such a résumé, Lemonis' unique vision and large ambition keep him looking forward. Lemonis recently announced the launch of his new series with CNBC, the Partner, where he will seek new business talent to help him run his business empire in exchange for a stake in all the businesses he manages.
