On Jan. 7, Gemline began offering select trendy drinkware products from Corkcicle to the promotional products industry.

“With an impressive growth history, sleekly designed products and a strong retail presence, Corkcicle is a perfect complement to Gemline’s growing product portfolio,” said Jonathan Isaacson, CEO of Gemline. “Partnering with this popular, design-forward brand enables us to provide more branding opportunities and inspiration to our customers, while continuing to position Gemline as a leading drinkware supplier in the industry.”
Eric Miller, president and co-founder of Corkcicle, said the brand’s products are a great fit for companies that want to provide topnotch gifts to valued employees and customers. “Our unique designs and breadth of product offering sets us apart from other drinkware companies,” said Miller, whose company also offers barware and cooler bags. “The strength of our retail brand resonates well with customers and they recognize that they just received a worthwhile gift. We look forward to growing our brand in the promotional market with Gemline.”
In addition to designing and manufacturing award-winning products, Corkcicle also makes social responsibility a priority. For instance, the company donates 5% of each online sale to charity efforts that fund clean water projects around the world.
Gemline’s portfolio now includes four leading drinkware brands. Beyond drinkware, the Lawrence, MA-based supplier’s product range features bags, backpacks, business accessories, stationery, gifts and electronics. With reported 2018 North American promotional product revenue of $104 million, Gemline ranked 15th on Counselor’s latest list of the largest suppliers in the industry.
