Tarnished by Charlottesville, Tiki Torch Company Tries to Move On
A torch-lit march by white nationalists through the grounds of the University of Virginia on Aug. 11.
Tiki, which is owned by the Wisconsin-based Lamplight Farms, denounced the white nationalists in a Facebook post on Aug. 12. “We do not support their message or the use of our products in this way,” it said. “Our products are designed to enhance backyard gatherings and to help family and friends connect with each other at home in their yard.” https://www.nytimes.com/2017/08/20/business/media/charlottesville-tiki-torch-company.html
