Brisbane, Australia – 30 October, 2017

Revo Sunglasses is excited to announce a new strategic partnership with the Australian Ladies Professional Golf (ALPG).

Revo, a global performance eyewear brand known as the leader in polarized lens technology, aims to further engagement with the ALPG and its fans through a variety of initiatives. The partnership will kick off at the Pullman Magenta Golf Pro Am and Clinic being held at Magenta Shores Golf and Country Club on 31 October -November 2nd.

In conjunction with the Pro Am, Revo will be running a digital campaign on the ALPG website, highlighting the importance of eye health both on and off the course for ALPG players and fans.

Cliff Robinson, President of Revo Sunglasses, said: “Revo is proud to announce an alliance with the ALPG, an exciting organization that closely aligns with Revo’s message of fashion + performance + protection. In addition to meeting the unique performance needs of golfers, eye health is such a key public health issue and we need to stress this both on and off the course,”

“The Revo collection offers players and fans the protection that is integral to keeping one’s eyes healthy, and we do it with style and performance.”

Revo will also be the official eyewear partner for the ALPG team at The Queens Cup presented by Kowa being held in early December in Nagoya, Japan and with further initiatives planned in collaboration with the ALPG throughout 2018.

Karen Lunn, CEO of ALPG, commented: “ALPG is delighted to announce this exciting new partnership with Revo eyewear. In recent years here in Australia there has been much research done about the effect the sun can have and we are now beginning to understand the importance of protecting our eyes, especially when exposed to the sun for long periods of times,”

“Revo is a premium global brand with many different options available to suit our members and fans and we look forward to working with them in the future.”

Revo has previously partnered up with U2 lead singer Bono on the Buy Vision, Give Sight initiative. For every pair of Revo Sunglasses sold the company donates $10 to help those fighting for their sight, with a goal of preventing vision impairment and preventable blindness in more than 5 million children and adults by 2020.

Revo is a 100% polarized collection that pioneered the performance eyewear industry with its signature Light Management System™ – a technology that manages the full spectrum of light including harmful Blue Light and HEV Light.

In a sport with unique light requirements, the Revo lens palette has numerous offerings for golfers to improve contrast and visual acuity while also highlighting key parts of the light spectrum for a more precise visual experience on the course.

Revo is represented by Golf Industry Central as its exclusive golf marketing partner in Australia and New Zealand along with the distributors of REVO in Australia, Frames Etcetera Pty Ltd.
