Start-up Company Founded Due To Tragedy for Memphian – Lands Exclusive Licensing With The University of Memphis

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

Memphis, TN| August 1, 2016 – Life Jacket Solutions announced today its exclusive distribution of Coast Guard approved University of Memphis branded life jackets.  Now Memphis fans and water enthusiasts can show their Tiger pride on the water while being SAFE!

CEO David Lee is more than excited about the University of Memphis life jackets, “The approval process for licensing agreements is never easy, but we definitely made sure that the University of Memphis was one of the first schools we secured while procuring licensing agreements.  Memphis fans are unbelievably passionate and many of them love to fish, ski, wakeboard, surf and just relax on the lakes in the mid-south.  We are excited that Memphis fans can show their pride while being safe on the water – and safety is the reason we are in business.  While the University of Memphis is one of the first schools we carry, other college fans shouldn’t be disappointed – we have secured the licensing and are in the process of adding more colleges to our product listing every week.  As a business, our focus is safety first, but we want folks to have FUN while being safe.  We are excited about our exclusive status, but we are even more excited about the products we have coming out next year.”

LJS secured a licensing agreement with the University of Memphis through Learfield, but hasn’t stopped there.  LJS also secured licensing agreements with Fermata and the CLC (Collegiate Licensing Company) giving LJS the exclusive capabilities to distribute their Coast Guard approved and collegiate branded life jackets to customers who are fans of just about every college in the U.S…

David has made it the mission of LJS to promote on the water safety and life jacket awareness by designing safe and FUN life jackets that inspire both adults and children to want to wear life jackets and to be safe on the water.
