Incipio Technologies Inc. signed a licensing agreement with fashion designer Kate Spade & Co. in New York.
The “multi-territory, multi-year deal” is the Irvine-based company’s “largest licensing relationship to date,” said its founder and chief executive, Andy Fathollahi.
Incipio will design, manufacture, and distribute accessories under the Kate Spade New York label for a range of smartphones and tablets made by Apple Inc., Samsung and Amazon.com Inc.
The branded products will be in stores by the end of this month, Fathollahi said.
Incipio had about $200 million in sales last year, according to a Business Journal estimate. The company employs about 270 people spread over a 160,000-square-foot headquarters near the Irvine Spectrum and at its offices in Utah, China, India and Europe.
