(Australia-NewsWire.Com, December 09, 2014 ) Melbourne, Victoria -- NeoSleeve has just received their first ever shipment of 50 units to Melbourne, Australia, where they have begun offering the armband for iPhone 5. The outlet that the company is using to sell these units is a gym called FiTNRG; a small warehouse in Melbourne's north that began a couple of years ago by two personal trainers. The gym offers a variety classes and a friendly atmosphere in which to work out and is a venue that NeoSleeve founder Ashford Thomas frequents on a regular basis.
Mr. Thomas is very thrilled to be moving into the Australian market and first made the announcement on the business' Facebook page on the weekend: "We are incredibly excited to be now offering our NeoSleeve armband for iPhone 5 at a local gym in Melbourne. FitNRG is situated on Albert St., Brunswick East, and only has about 45 left in stock!" The gym is selling the armbands for only $20 AUD – a sizeable discount from the regular retail price set on Amazon.com. It is expected that with Christmas just around the corner many people will snatch up this "stocking-stuffer" deal that NeoSleeve and FitNRG have put forth together.
The quick movement into the Australian market comes as NeoSleeve recently sold out of their first 500 units on Amazon in the United States. The highly reviewed armband for iPhone 5 was selling at a rapid pace, reaching a #21 best seller rank in its product category before all stock had been purchased.
This rapid sales increase began in early November and prompted another shipment of 1000 units to be quickly produced in China – with 50 of those units being directed to Melbourne to establish a foothold in the company's home city. The other 950 have yet to become available for sale on Amazon, but NeoSleeve promises that they will arrive very soon.
