Under the partnership, The Door will lead strategic communications, media relations, executive visibility and brand storytelling across Palm Tree Crew's expanding portfolio of businesses and initiatives.

As the brand continues expanding into new categories, we're excited to help tell that story and further elevate Palm Tree Crew as one of the defining lifestyle companies of this generation."
