Title: Roto Grip and AZO
Post by: Ric Clint on October 09, 2009, 03:06:34 AM

I saw in another post where a User said they were linked together.

Maybe it's been mentioned, I don't know?

How are they linked?

I thought I heard where they were made by Brunswick. I could see it being the Storm/Roto company as well.

I believe if I remember correctly Storm bought AZO.

Storm Owns and pours AZO just like they own Roto. AZO does their own cores not sure about the coverstock situation.

Storm owns the rights to the brand name AZO but the name is leased to 3 distributors CAL BOWLING, LOMAR and BOWLERS SUPPLY.

The balls are produced at the Storm factory.

There is no relationship between these two.

Any questions let me know,.
Thanks ,
Jim

Or maybe another way to put it is Storm is the parent company and Roto Grip and AZO (owned by Storm Products) are the sister and brother brands as they both fall underneath the Storm umbrella.  

AZO is run as a separate brand where Storm & Roto Grip are more linked together.  I think that is what you're trying to say Jimmy.  Managed differently with a different business model.
