Incipio acquires Griffin

Irvine-based accessories maker Incipio Group keeps getting bigger and now, not long after taking over popular budget headphone maker Skullcandy, this tech conglomerate has just acquired Griffin Technology as well. Next to its eponymous brand, Incipio's portfolio currently includes names like Braven, Incase, and ClamCase.

According to Incipio's founder and CEO Andy Fathollahi, "Griffin strengthens our product development and manufacturing capabilities, complements our existing product lines in rugged cases, power and connectivity, and allows our brands to reach a broader domestic and international audience through enhanced distribution in the business-to-business, enterprise and education verticals."

Griffin Technology will keep its Nashville global headquarters and will remain a stand-alone brand. This means that consumers will continue to have access to Griffin accessories as in the past and nothing much will change from their point of view. As it usually happens when such deals take place, the financial terms of this corporate acquisition have not been disclosed.
