Leupold & Stevens Purchases Redfield Brand
Leupold® & Stevens, Inc. recently announced its purchase of the Redfield® brand and “all intellectual property and associated assets.”
Redfield was originally founded in 1909, and spent many decades as a leading U.S. producer of riflescopes, spotting scopes, riflescope mounting systems and binoculars until it closed in 1998. The Redfield brand subsequently changed hands several times, before being acquired by Meade Instruments, from whom Leupold & Stevens made the acquisition.
Leupold officials have initially declined to discuss the purchase price, or future plans.
Tom Fruechtel, Leupold President & CEO says the company will “carefully consider how to proceed” while being “cognizant of Redfield's historical significance and the place it holds in the hearts of millions of dedicated American sportsmen.”
