Gemline Introduces Igloo Drinkware, Expands Cooler Offerings
The Top 40 supplier asserted there’s a great sustainability story to share around the drinkware – namely, that it’s made from 90% recycled food-grade stainless steel.
Top 40 supplier Gemline (asi/56070) is digging deeper into its partnership with Igloo.
The Lawrence, MA-headquartered firm announced recently that it has introduced Igloo drinkware into its portfolio and expanded the range of hard-sided coolers from the retail brand that it offers to the promotional products market.
Gemline executives noted that the drinkware is constructed with 90% recycled food-grade stainless steel, while the cooler additions include styles from Igloo’s Made-in-the-USA Profile series, Trailmate Series, and Kool-Tunes. The last of those cooler lines features built-in speakers with Bluetooth connectivity.
“Our long-term partnership with Igloo has been tremendously successful, and we’re thrilled to introduce a wider range of innovative Igloo products to our customers,” said Gemline President/CEO Frank Carpenito, a member of Counselor’s Power 50 list of promo’s most influential people.
Carpenito continued: “We’re constantly seeking ways to provide value to our distributor partners and simplify their shopping experience by offering a wider assortment of the most in-demand products from our retail brand partners.”
Gemline, which partners with a variety of retail brands, said that the “introduction of Igloo drinkware broadens the range of price options” within its retail-branded drinkware selection.
Based on reported 2022 North American promotional product revenue of $151 million, Gemline ranked 12th on Counselor’s most recent list of the largest suppliers in the industry. The company was also among Counselor’s top 75 Best Places to Work in 2024, and announced in mid-May that it had reincorporated as a public benefit corporation.
