Dorfman Pacific CEO Douglas Highsmith says many of the colorful and fancy hats worn at the Kentucky Derby are designed and manufactured by the Stockton-based company and the hats are expected to sell like hotcakes at the Churchill Downs stores.
Hats range in price from about $100 to $300.
Thousands of hats are sold year-round by the Stockton company.
Its manufacturing and distribution center on Boeing Way is 300,000 square feet.
Highsmith told KCRA 3 that his inventory has become more popular after the Royal Wedding last year.
Dorfman Pacific said the Kentucky Derby is great for business because without a hat, people feel naked at the prestigious horse races.
