Zippo

Zippo would like to extend its brand in the outdoor category, and we are looking for a licensee that would help us grow the brand in the Multi-tool category. 

The goal is to combine Zippo’s trusted reputation for quality, durability, and outdoor reliability with the functional versatility of a premium multi-tool product line.

The licensed products will target outdoor enthusiasts, campers, hikers, DIY users, and everyday carry (EDC) consumers, offering features such as knives, pliers, screwdrivers, bottle openers, and fire-starting tools crafted with Zippo’s signature design and brand appeal.

This partnership would leverage Zippo’s global brand recognition and distribution capabilities.
