Target: Lee Cooper Domain: Digital - Digital Forensics Research date: 22 October 2026 Scope: International brand ownership, territorial licensees, relevant subsidiaries, Israeli retail operations, digital-service providers, customer-data processing and technology-related relationships.
Enterprise Technology Stack & Vendor Relationships
Corporate and operational structure
Lee Cooper is an international clothing, footwear and accessories brand operating through geographically distributed licensing and retail relationships; its corporate profile describes sales through thousands of outlets across more than 100 countries.1
In a 2015 SEC filing, Iconix Brand Group disclosed that it had established Iconix Israel LLC in November 2013 and that M.G.S. Sports Trading Limited subsequently purchased a 50% interest in the venture for approximately $3.3 million; the filing identified Brill Fashion as the Lee Cooper licensee operating more than 40 branded Israeli retail stores. This evidence is historical [pre-2020], and the current joint-venture ownership percentage has not been independently verified.2
The same SEC filing identified Gideon Moliov as the founder of MGS, assigned administrative and trademark-related services to Iconix, and assigned day-to-day territorial management and licensee identification to MGS. These arrangements are historical [pre-2020], with current contractual terms unknown.2
The current Israeli Lee Cooper website identifies Brill Shoe Industries Ltd, Israeli company number 520038647, as the operator and rights holder of the ecommerce website.3
Brill’s published privacy policy identifies S.B.N. Clothing Ltd, company number 513942045, as part of the Brill Group and includes Lee Cooper alongside other group retail websites.4
Brill’s website currently operates an Israeli online store with product listings, customer accounts, wish lists, shopping baskets and online purchasing functions.5

Brill’s published privacy policy expressly identifies Google and Facebook as advertising and analytics providers used to measure marketing activity and support targeted advertising; the policy also describes cookies, pixels and other digital tracking technologies.4

Terrific Live identifies Lee Cooper France as a customer of its Timeline product, which presents brand-history content with links directing ecommerce visitors towards relevant product pages. The accessible supplier case study does not establish a definitive implementation date or whether the relationship remains contractually active in October 2026.7
Equator describes a Lee Cooper creative-services assignment covering brand identity, point-of-sale materials, lookbooks and website imagery. The supplier’s case study establishes digital-channel creative work but does not identify core network, security or cloud-infrastructure deployments; the assignment date is unspecified.8
