US Patriot Stands By Employees During COVID-19 Pandemic

Thursday, June 11th, 2020

Many of you are familiar with US Patriot. They have over 70 stores across the US and close to 350 employees. They may well be the largest military retailer in the world.

Like any other company that performs retail services, the COVID-19 crisis has been tough on business and employee alike.

Fortunately, US Patriot has been able to stand by their employees during this tough time and is paying out $250,000 in total to their loyal employees as a retention bonus. Deemed an essential business, their team members stuck by their side so that the company could continue to service customers in the military and public safety community.  This bonus is based on years of service with some getting close to $4K apiece.

Here is the text of the letter:

U.S. Patriot is pleased to announce that it has recently rewarded nearly $250,000 in retention bonuses to their entire staff, as a sign of appreciation toward all the hardworking team members within the organization.

Co-owners Phil Dee and Paul Yoo have been touched by the commitment shown by the team during this very stressful and challenging time for our country. This has allowed US Patriot to continue to provide the essential equipment and service to those serving our country at home and abroad.

We are very fortunate to have such dedicated team members and customers, and will always strive to provide the best products and service to those in need.

Wishing you all the best.

Infuze Hydration Announces New Website

Thursday, June 11th, 2020

Leading provider of innovative hydration solutions, Infuze Hydration, launches a new website as part of the company’s rebranding process

Infuze Hydration recently started a rebranding process that includes the adoption of a new name – Infuzeyourlife. In a similar vein, the company has announced the launch of a new user-friendly website designed to make its solutions even more accessible to customers across the globe. Described as “a hydration revolution,” Infuzeyourlife offers amazing solutions that allow users to infuse their water bottles and hydration packs in a matter of seconds.

One of the major challenges faced by millions of people, particularly fitness enthusiasts and athletes is staying hydrated as they carry out their activities. While water remains the best form of liquid for rehydrating the body, it often does not contain the necessary nutrients and electrolytes to instantly energize the body. Consequently, people sometimes have to settle for sugary drinks that are detrimental to the body. Infuzeyourlife, however, was able to change this narrative by creating a system that provides optimal rehydration by ensuring users have water or mix delicious flavor, electrolytes, vitamins, energy, at their desired taste literally on-demand, without any cleanup.

Since the official launch of the product in 2019, the brand has grown in leaps and bounds thanks to the revolutionary solution offered to combat dehydration, helping people to take their life, passions, talents, and performance to the next level.

Galvion Signs Contract With Marketing and Communications Agency, Chamois

Tuesday, June 9th, 2020

Galvion, an international designer, manufacturer and supplier of survivability and power management systems to the global defence and security sector, has signed a contract with the UK-based marketing and communications agency, Chamois Consulting Ltd. Under this contract Chamois will provide an integrated marketing and communications service with a particular focus on brand communications and PR to raise the profile and awareness of the newly launched Galvion.

Following the announcement in October 2019 of the sale of its protective eyewear business, along with the Revision Military brand name, the remaining Armor, Soldier Power and Electronics, Vehicle Platform Power and Advanced Concept divisions of the company are moving forward under the new corporate name GALVION. With seven company sites located across Canada, USA and UK, Galvion’s product portfolio includes leading-edge head, face and torso protective solutions, as well as power management systems supplied to military and tactical clients worldwide.

Galvion enjoys an impressive track record of large-scale global contracts for protective head systems as well as soldier power management systems, with customers including defence forces from the US, Canada, UK, France, Germany, Denmark, the Netherlands, the Czech Republic, Poland, UAE, Israel, Australia, Indonesia, Botswana and others.

Of particular note to both Galvion and Chamois is the fact that the contract was put in place during the Covid-19 lockdown period, resulting in the parties on both sides not having met each other face to face prior to contract award. For both companies this has been a clear demonstration of how innovation, determination and adaptability can allow business to continue in these uncertain and challenging times.

Marnie Blanshay, Director of Marketing and Communications at Galvion said: “We are excited to start this new partnership with Chamois. A corporate re-brand is a monumental task no matter the circumstances, but the added constraints due to COVID-19 have pushed us to look for additional partners who can help us find creative ways to engage with our customers and markets. The inability to travel to meet customers in person or engage at trade shows are obstacles that so many are facing at the moment, but business must continue, and we are looking forward to working with Chamois to introduce Galvion and advance our sharpened business portfolio”.

Jamie Clarke, CEO at Chamois said: “I’m so pleased to have signed this contract with Galvion who, for us, are a model client. Following re-branding, companies often need help to establish awareness of the new brand despite there being a clear, credible and proven pedigree reaching back under the former brand. Our aim is to place Galvion firmly and visibly on the global map and we’re really looking forward to starting work”. He added “This contract is one of two new accounts we’ve brought on board during the lockdown period, working through restrictions that made it impossible to meet those involved in person. Life is not easy for any of us at the moment but we’re finding ways to overcome the constraints and continue to grow. I’d like to wish everyone the very best in these difficult times; stay safe”.
