History
As the late 70’s turned into the 80’s, Evans Mfg. began to develop. The original owner with a handful of employees started working in a space about the size of a garage. We molded the original patented Beverage Wrench & Keep-It Clip (Chip Clip) for the retail market. By the mid-90s, Alan Vaught took over as President, and more products were added to the collection. In the early 2000s, we built up our line significantly and became a leader in the healthcare, household, and beverage categories. Evans became a well-known brand name in the industry for innovation, quality, and service. In 2005, we opened a facility in Mexico to imprint overseas products. A few years later, we started a non-woven tote factory and developed the drinkware, bags, and writing instrument categories. In 2023, Evans next chapter began, as we became part of the HPG Group.
