Quality Importers has announced that it has acquired Get-A-Grip, the company behind the Get-A-Grip Cigar Clip.

While Quality Importers has been the distributor of Get-A-Grip since 2012, it now owns the brand.

“We have been exclusively manufacturing and distributing it for 4 years now and we recently purchased the patent and trademark for the brand,” said Michael Giordano, president of Quality Importers, to halfwheel. “Get-A-Grip is a solid product line for us and we expect to expand on the sku offerings, as that has been our model for all acquisitions to date. It’s a great item for (brand promotion) and personalization as well.”

This joins a lengthy list of acquisitions for Quality Importers that includes cigar cutters like Palió and Shuriken, Stinky ashtrays and others.
