Largest Specialty Retailer in the U.S. Will Offer Innovative Scratch Protection
SALT LAKE CITY--(BUSINESS WIRE)--ZAGG Inc. (OTC BB: ZAGG.OB) announces they have signed a distribution agreement with Best Buy Co., Inc. (NYSE: BBY - News). Beginning in July 2008, Best Buy, the largest specialty retailer in the United States, will now sell ZAGG's invisibleSHIELD™, an ultra-thin impenetrable clear film that protects personal electronics from scratches and dings.
ZAGG's invisibleSHIELD offers consumers an alternative to bulky cases with thousands of precision-cut designs for a multitude of gadgets, including cell phones, digital cameras and laptops. Some of their most popular designs, including custom-made shields for Apple's new iPhone 3G, the Samsung Instinct, and BlackBerry cell phones, will be the first available at 300 Best Buy Mobile stores across the country.
"Best Buy is widely considered the authority regarding consumer electronics, and their discriminating customers will now have the opportunity to get the best in class for gadget protection," said Derek Smith, ZAGG's Vice President of Sales. "The invisibleSHIELD is a must-have for anyone with a high-end gadget, and this agreement will allow us to introduce our product to a much broader customer base and give us incredible exposure."
"The introduction of the invisibleSHIELD into Best Buy is the beginning of many big box retailers to follow around the world," added Robert G. Pedersen II, ZAGG's President and CEO.
Backed by a lifetime guarantee, the ultra-tough material used to create the invisibleSHIELD was originally utilized by the U.S. military to protect helicopter blades from wind, sand, and the wear and tear of high-speed travel. This military-grade scratch protection film is exclusive to ZAGG, and the invisibleSHIELD allows customers to use their electronics without the fear of scratches or nicks, while still maintaining their sleek look.
