As part of the AIR family, NameLess joins Al Fakher, AIR\u2019s flagship hookah brand and the largest hookah brand by sales volume in the world, and its suite of innovative social inhalation products and flavors. AIR plans to leverage its extensive global distribution network \u2013 spanning more than 90 markets \u2013 to introduce NameLess\u2019 range of high-quality flavors, including Black Nana, its best-selling unique variety offering a grape-mint tobacco blend, to new audiences worldwide in the coming months.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis acquisition enables us to expand AIR\u2019s growing product portfolio at a time when hookah consumption continues to grow globally,\u201d said Stuart Brazier, CEO of AIR. \u201cIt also allows us to further fortify our presence in Germany, a key market for us and our global growth strategy, and to continue meeting the rising demand for reduced-risk social inhalation products with indulgent flavors. We\u2019re grateful to welcome NameLess to the AIR family as we bring Black Nana and other tobacco flavors to the global stage in the months ahead.\u201d<\/p>\n
