THE SITUATION
SAFESTYLE is an Australian designer and provider of Safety eyewear. Safestyle prides themselves on being one of the first companies to put “safety” and “style” in the same sentence. This sophisticated protective eyewear has certified medium impact with UV400 99.95% UV protection, that is comfortable and come in a range of different colours and styles.
With the increasing number of workers who are left compromising their own safety by avoiding the very eyewear supposedly meant to protect them due to how uncool they feel, Tim, the owner of Safesyle, had a simple vision. His fashionable eye took charge in the effort to replace the usual “speed dealer” tradie sunglasses, into something much sleeker and stylish. Safestyle are the first Safety glasses that don’t look or even feel like “safety glasses”; Who ever said fashion is pain? All the protection, none of the discomfort.
Despite Tim’s revolutionary idea, he had difficulty in getting all the jobs done in order to increase sales. Being a full-time tradie, Tim found it difficult to find the time to not only market his product to consumers, but struggled to find the time to package and ship his orders. 4 months ago, Tim decided it was time to outsource the fulfilment and distribution of his products in order to maximise sales. He researched Perth warehousing and distribution facilities, and found Quickmail in Kenwick.
