Stran Promotional Solutions Acquires Wildman Imprints Division of Wildman Business Group

Stran Promotional Solutions and Wildman Business Group announced the sale of Wildman Imprints, the promotional products distributor division of Wildman Business Group, to Stran Promotional Solutions. While details of the financial deal are not being disclosed, the transaction was finalized and closed with an effective date of Sept. 26, 2020.

As part of the asset purchase agreement, Stran Promotional Solutions is acquiring the Wildman Imprints division, and 19 Wildman Imprints employees are moving to Stran.

Stran Promotional Solutions will be opening a new office in Warsaw, Ind., for the new team. Steve Hage, who has been overseeing the Imprints division at Wildman, will stay on as general manager of the new Stran Midwest office.

“We are excited to be expanding our footprint across the Midwest, and are thrilled to have found a team in Wildman Imprints that has a similar approach to finding creative and custom solutions to meet the needs of each and every client they service,” said Andy Shape, president of Stran Promotional Solutions. “We believe these shared values and dedicated employees will ensure a successful transition for the clients of Wildman Imprints.”

The decision to sell the Wildman Imprints division was made to focus on and drive significant growth across Wildman Business Group’s core lines of business, uniforms and commercial laundry services with facility cleaning products and services. Wildman Business Group has built a substantial promotional products business over the last 20-plus years as a value-add to their longstanding clients. In 2019, the Wildman Imprints division’s revenue exceeded $11 million.

“We decided pre-COVID to re-double our efforts on growing our core business of uniform and commercial laundry services across the Midwest,” Josh Wildman, CEO of Wildman Business Group, said. “As a part of that decision, it only made sense to find a good home for the Imprints business, and we couldn’t be more thrilled to have found Stran to ensure that our customers continue to receive the world-class customer service that they have come to expect from the team here at Wildman.”
