Leed’s Now Offering CamelBak to Promo Industry

A full assortment of products launches in 2019, but some items will be available in October 2018.

Leed’s (asi/66887) today announced a partnership that will see the subsidiary of Top 40 promo supplier Polyconcept North America (PCNA) bring a full assortment of CamelBak drinkware and bags to the promotional products marketplace in 2019.

Still, distributors won’t have to wait until next year for a taste of what’s to come. This month, Leed’s is offering a limited release of popular CamelBak drinkware items. Products include the CamelBak Eddy, which features the “Big Bite Valve,” and the CamelBak Chute Mag, in both 20oz stainless and .75 liter Tritan versions. The products will be available with multi-color decorating, and can ship the next day with SureShip.

“CamelBak is the premier brand in hydration solutions and the perfect addition to our industry-leading drinkware assortment,” said David Nicholson, president of PCNA. “This partnership will allow us to continue to provide our distributors with the innovative and popular retail brands their customers are looking for.”

For the unfamiliar, CamelBak is an outdoors lifestyle brand that offers high-quality packs, bottles and other drinkware.

CamelBak enjoys popularity with hikers, distance runners, mountain bikers, and other outdoor enthusiasts.

Relatedly, CamelBak has a socially responsible ethos that may appeal to eco-conscious promo clients.

CamelBak said it is amped about the partnership with Leed’s. “The market-leading services and decorating expertise that Leed’s provides, combined with our line of award-winning products, create an ideal relationship,” said Andy Welling, vice president of sales with CamelBak.
