“GF Werbemittel and pro-promotion enjoy an outstanding reputation within our industry. We are delighted and proud, that both companies have entrusted us with their businesses and have become part of Geiger as of July 1, 2026,” said Mirco Häßlich, one of Geiger GmbH’s three Managing Partners alongside Alex Heinecke and Marc Strickrodt, and responsible for mergers and acquisitions. “We are also pleased that Doris Fischer of GF Werbemittel will continue to support the Rimpar location and remain active in the market with us for some time. Annette Stoffers of pro-promotion will also continue to advise us during the transition. This provides an excellent foundation for our future development,” Häßlich added.
Doris of GF Werbemittel said “It was especially important to me to know that my wonderful team and loyal customers would be in good hands when I retire. Our discussions were characterised by mutual trust from the very beginning, and I am delighted that we will become part of Geiger in July. Geiger’s extensive range of services including full-service solutions, textile-on-demand, direct import, and much more will enable us to serve our customers even better in the years ahead.”
Annette of pro-promotion commented: “Over many years, we have built strong relationships with our customers and provided them with expert support. After my discussions with Mirco, I am confident that this high level of service will continue under the Geiger brand. I can now retire with complete peace of mind.”

These acquisitions reflect our continued growth in Germany and our long-term commitment to strengthening our presence in the European promotional products market. Both businesses have built strong reputations for service, customer relationships and industry expertise, and as part of Geiger, they will now have access to greater resources, global capabilities and an expanded support network.”
