Geiger, a Lewiston-based promotional products company, has continued its acquisition streak with the purchase of a Pennsylvania distributor for an undisclosed price.
In a news release Tuesday, Geiger announced the deal for Five Thousand Forms Inc., which does business as Give Me Five, and said the acquisition is part of an expansion strategy to add clients and services.
The two companies also complement each other well, Geiger President and CEO Jo-an Lantz said.
“Herb and Linda Levy, along with their family, built a firm known for excellence and customer experience,” Lantz said in the release, referring to the founders of Five Thousand Forms. “In addition, as a family-owned business, we share the same values and culture. Five Thousand Forms, Give Me Five, and Geiger are a perfect match.”
