Extensions will inspire enthusiasts of all ages to get outdoors and reset their souls

London, England – October 2, 2018 – World-class adventurer and TV personality, Ed Stafford, announced that he has selected global brand licensing agency Brandgenuity, to help build a licensing program around his growing brand. Over the past decade, the Britain-based explorer has pushed the limits of adventure entertainment, embarking on and filming some of the most cutting-edge expeditions and boldest backcountry projects of the 21st century. A natural and prolific content creator, Stafford captures most of his own footage while on expeditions.

After putting himself on the map in 2010 by becoming the first person to walk the length of the Amazon River, Stafford’s profile has continued to grow steadily. With 20 years’ experience which originated from the British Army and moved into the survival and adventure space, Stafford is an authority in this outdoor market and he is keen to inspire eager, go-getting adventurers with the tools that they need to embark on ambitious expeditions of their own. Brandgenuity’s expertise and experience will enable Ed to create equipment such as survival gear, outdoor apparel, knives/multi-tools, outdoor tech/GPS, and interactive apps, and together they hope to build a strong brand portfolio that will match the growing trend towards adventure travel and the outdoors.
Stafford has become a familiar face of Discovery, both globally and in the US, and has released five of his own specials or series, including Naked and Marooned, Into the Unknown, and Left for Dead. Stafford has also already written two successful books based on his expeditions and has a third in the works.
“We are thrilled that Ed selected us,” says Teri Niadna, Managing Director of Brandgenuity Europe. “This is an exciting time to license a great authority brand into the outdoor space, as consumers are getting outdoors and seeking their own adventures.” Added Niadna, “Ed has such a contagious spirit and energy. He’s humble, authentic, and witty. We cannot wait to bring his unique personality, authenticity and knowledge to new, exciting spaces, for consumers across all ages, genders, and experience levels.”
