Qimmiq was founded in 2018. The company is located in Vantaa, Finland. The first pet product launched on the market by the company is an illuminated retractable dog leash. Qimmiq’s patent-pending technology allows the entire leash to light up at the push of a button. This greatly improves its visibility and ensures that others will see the leash even when it's dark. All products are designed and manufactured in Finland.
