SCS Direct launches sales of Budweiser grilling products through Amazon, co-branding them with its own Camerons line. The Budweiser stovetop smoker, food warmer, portable tailgate and open fire grills and other products were co-branded since they share designs with Camerons, a grilling products company SCS acquired in 2013, says an SCS spokeswoman. Camerons has stopped further product development on the line as it finalizes packaging for brick and mortar distribution later this year, says the company spokeswoman. The new packaging will be shown at the International Home + Housewares Show in Chicago in March.

Meanwhile, SCS postponed delivery of Kikkoman brand housewares products to early 2018. The company previously planned to have soy sauce servers, sushi kits and other products bearing the soy sauce brand available early this year (Inside Licensing, March 29 p3).
