StartUps and the ICS

Posted by Rob Quigley on May 03, 2012 0 Comments

April was a crazy busy month and we've been signing up new stockists left and right. You can now get Motionfox expandable hi-viz activewear in 8 retail outlets in Dublin - and 1 in Mayo. We're on the East coast - and now the West coast too!!!!  There's a full list of our stockists here and we're gonna put a big map together and start pointing out all the places in Ireland that stock our gear. M Hopkins & Sons is our Ballina stockist and they are on lower Pearse St. - opposite the Dunnes Stores (there's a pic of them below)

Another thing that happened was Eircom filmed us for their StartUps initiative where they are filming new Irish Startups and then uploading the videos to their youtube channel and also to their site We filmed in Freewheeling on Pearse St. a really bike shop that also stocks Motionfox! The two minute clip is cool and I think we go in to a draw for free broadband for the year - fingers crossed! Check out our vid below:

Speaking of competitions we are totally buzzing after we were shortlisted for two categories in the Startup Awards 2012! We're in Product Startup of the Year and Export Startup of the year. We're really delighted to have been shortlisted and hope we can go all the way :-)

We're expecting more stock to arrive in May - particularly the yellow FlashBk's as they are proving very popular - so keep checking the website for details.

You have to come see us at the Irish Cycling Show in the RDS on May 19 and 20. It's gonna be a quality fun filled family cycling day - with Stephen Roche as the special guest of ribbon cutting! What a legend. Hoping to get some pics with him at our stand - H30 is our stand btw Stephen if you're reading this drop by! We'll have some cool offers, competitions, prizes and games at the show for anyone who stops by to say hey - watch out for special offers we'll be running on Facebook that weekend - you'll have to be at the show to avail of them!
