Andrew Geddes, director of international sales at VIVA Scandinavia Europe and Liiton, commented: “2023 was the right time to make headway in the UK with our two specialist consumer brands – VIVA Scandinavia tea and coffee accessories and Liiton glassware with its patented cooling technology. We are delighted to work with Auteur who already have a solid reputation in hydration and drinkware and are the perfect partner to springboard a UK launch for our brands.”
Jenny Dahlman, managing director at Auteur, added: “We are thrilled to be entering into a UK distribution partnership with VIVA Scandinavia/Liiton. Their ranges are unique and design-led with quality at the forefront – a key element we look for with all the brands we distribute – and we are proud to bring the brands to the UK market.”
VIVA Scandinavia creates contemporary and innovative teapots, mugs and tea accessories making teatime that extra bit special. The vision is to modernise tea traditions to keep them relevant.
Liiton is pitched a men’s gift to suit all price points. Crafted using X1Crystaline, weighing in at 1lb each, the range is available as 2-piece, 4-piece and a whisky set with matching decanter.
The design of the patented Chill-Charge System comes in the form of glass sculpted mountains embedded in the glass and will chill down a drink in 18 seconds. The Peaks set features four mountains – Fuji, K2, Denali and Mont Blanc -and there is also Everest and a Grand Canyon design. The glasses can be kept in the freezer until needed.
