London, UK – April 8, 2026 – Geiger, the world’s largest privately held and family-owned promotional products distributor, today announced the acquisition of Vienna, Austria based Nowak Werbeartikel.

“The acquisition represents an important step in Geiger’s continued global expansion, while further strengthening our footprint in Europe,” said David Geiger, President of Geiger. “Nowak Werbeartikel brings a strong foundation of client relationships and local market expertise. We’re excited to welcome their team into Geiger and continue building on their success.”

Thomas Derhaschnig, Managing Director of Nowak commented that, “Following Geiger’s 2024 acquisition of WER GmbH, a long-standing partner of Nowak, I followed their development closely and engaged regularly with their leadership team. It quickly became clear that Geiger shares the same values and culture that have defined our success.”
