Cutler and Gross has signed a strategic partnership agreement with Europa Eyewear, naming the company its exclusive distribution partner for North America, effective June 5, 2026.
The agreement marks a new chapter for the British luxury eyewear brand as it continues to focus on long-term growth, independent optical partnerships and customer service across the North American market.
To support continuity for customers, the existing North American sales team will transition with Cutler and Gross from Marchon to Europa. The companies said this approach will preserve established customer relationships, product knowledge and day-to-day service consistency.
As part of the transition, Europa will add a new Independent Luxury Division to its organization, complementing its existing portfolio, which includes STATE Optical Co., American Optical and Scott Harris.
For Canadian accounts, Europa will service Cutler and Gross through the International Luxury Division and ship directly from Chicago. The rest of the Europa portfolio will continue to be serviced by Europa Eyewear Canada, based in Winnipeg.
“We are genuinely delighted to partner with Europa,” said Jack Dooley, Chief Executive Officer of Cutler and Gross. “What matters most to us is continuity and care. Our customers deserve calm transitions, familiar faces and partners who understand the long view.”
Europa Eyewear brings decades of experience building premium independent brands in North America, with a reputation for service, operational depth and long-standing relationships in the eyewear community.
Cutler and Gross was founded in 1969 in London’s Knightsbridge and today has flagship locations in London, Bath, New York and Toronto, with more than 2,000 stockists in over 50 countries.
