Black Diamond Equipment Ltd. announced a new a partnership with Peregrine Outfitters of Williston, Vermont, to distribute products for Black Diamond Performance Lightware.
Chris Grover, Black Diamond National Sales Director states, “Black Diamond Equipment has begun distributing its popular line of high tech headlamps through Peregrine Outfitters. Recognizing Peregrine's reputation for excellent customer service and quick turnaround, Black Diamond feels that this new relationship will serve to make Performance Lightware more readily available for East Coast consumers who can benefit from the innovative lighting technologies that our headlamps offer.”
Black Diamond introduced their paradigm shifting headlamp line in 2001, and has received various awards and editor's choice picks in the past few years with their integrated hybrid, zenon and LED technologies. The Peregrine affiliation will open new doors to the Performance Lightware line, a newly formed division of Black Diamond Equipment Ltd., created to focus on the growth BD is experiencing with their headlamps.
“Performance Lightware will act as a separate entity within the Black Diamond structure,” explains Peter Metcalf, Black Diamond CEO “and we are looking to complement our existing team with some new hires dedicated to this category in the near future.” The formation of Black Diamond Performance Lightware comes on the heels of multiple positives. Recently, Black Diamond not only received a significant military order for the Polar Star Headlamp from the Austrian Army, but also worked a joint venture with Decathlon of France to promote the Ion.
