Geiger continues strategic expansion with the acquisition of Brandelity
London, UK – August 6th, 2024 – Geiger, the world’s largest family-owned and privately held promotional product distributor, proudly announces its acquisition of Brandelity Ltd, marking another significant milestone in its ongoing global expansion. This follows Geiger’s recent acquisition of WER GmbH in Germany in July.
Brandelity, headquartered in Windsor, UK, has established a strong presence since its inception in 2004. By joining forces with Geiger, Brandelity’s customers will now enjoy an expanded array of services and creative solutions.
“I’m thrilled to announce the sale of our business to Geiger,” said Chris Love, Managing Director of
Brandelity. “This partnership represents a significant opportunity for growth and innovation, benefiting both our valued customers and dedicated staff members. With the combined strengths and synergies of our two companies, we are poised to deliver enhanced services, greater resources, and exciting new opportunities for everyone involved.”
Geiger is celebrated for its leadership in sustainability, and this acquisition underscores a shared commitment to environmental responsibility. Brandelity has been a carbon-neutral business since 2019, collaborating with CO2Balance to measure and offset its carbon emissions through projects in Africa.
“We are delighted to welcome the Brandelity team and their clients to the Geiger family,” stated Vicky Kinasz, Vice President/Managing Director of Geiger International. “This acquisition is another strategic step in our European expansion and we are proud to have them on board.”
