GeoCentral, a leader in the wholesale gift industry known for its souvenir, wellness and children’s offerings, has acquired Red Carpet Studios, an established brand specializing in garden decor, home accents and holiday giftware. The acquisition brings together two innovative companies, enhancing GeoCentral’s product offerings and strengthening its position in the marketplace.
For over 45 years, GeoCentral has been a source of high-quality, trend-forward gifts and decor. The company is recognized for its children’s enrichment kits, boxed wellness crystal collections, crystal jewelry, natural home decor, loose stones and displays. With the addition of RCS Gifts, the company expands its portfolio to include garden decor, wind chimes and whimsical home accessories, offering wholesale buyers a more diverse selection.
“The decision to sell was a necessity for the legacy and longevity of the company we proudly built,” says Mitchell Latch, co-owner of RCS Gifts. “This was made easier knowing GeoCentral will continue the business alongside our employees, many of whom have been with us 20-plus years. We appreciate the dedication and loyalty of those employees and enjoyed working alongside them every day. We will miss the people we met along the way, the company we built and the industry that has given us so much. In memory of [fellow co-founder] Paul [Schenz], Godspeed.”
RCS Gifts’ existing product lines will continue to be available through all current sales channels, ensuring a seamless transition for existing customers while introducing new collaborations and innovations in future collections.
GeoCentral is a wholly owned subsidiary of CM Paula, a second-generation, family-owned holding company. In addition to GeoCentral, the company owns Up With Paper, Remtec Automation and ART Metals Group.
