Free Tee with Purchase when Consumers Free Their Toes® with Quiksilver or ROXY

July 02, 2012 // Franchising.com // ATLANTA – Flip Flop Shops partners with Quiksilver and ROXY for a month-long, system-wide promotion to help consumers enjoy summer in style with free tees when they Free Their Toes® with the action sports retailers’ flip flops and sandals.

Throughout July, consumers at any of the Flip Flop Shops locations throughout the United States, Canada, Guam and the Caribbean will receive a free Quiksilver or ROXY tee with any Quiksilver or ROXY purchase of $30 or more, while supplies last.

“We’re stoked to launch this promotion during the peak of the summer season with our core brand partners and friends over at Quiksilver and ROXY,” said Brian Curin, the President (Size 10) of Flip Flop Shops, adding that this is the retail franchise’s first system-wide promotion with both brands. “Quiksilver and ROXY have been leading and living the action sports lifestyle for decades. It’s no doubt that their products are a staple to anyone living a laid-back, casual lifestyle.”

As part of the promotion, each Flip Flop Shops location will receive a promotional facelift, complete with Quiksilver and ROXY window clings, floor graphics, peg talkers, and cash-wrap posters. In addition, each shop’s unique and innovative "flip flop tree" will be exclusively dedicated to Quiksilver and ROXY product lines. Flip Flop Shops’ staff will create further awareness for the promotion by wearing Quiksilver and ROXY-branded tees and footwear.

“Flip Flop Shops found a niche that was so underserved throughout the industry, stepped-up and put the proper spotlight on flip flops and sandals. We’re honored to be part of the ride as a core brand and are excited to offer a system-wide promo for consumers to enjoy,” said John Mills, the Senior Vice President (Size 13) of Quiksilver Sales.

Bursting onto the retail scene in 2004, Flip Flop Shops quickly became North America's first retail chain exclusive to the hottest brands and latest styles of flip flops and sandals from such leading brands as SANÜK, OluKai, Quiksilver, ROXY, Reef, Cobian, and Cushe, among others. Its mission: to provide the opportunity for anyone, in any climate, to Live…Work…Play With Their Toes Exposed® with the freedom of flip flops on their feet.

“When it comes to ‘Freeing Your Toes’ in style and comfort, Quiksilver and ROXY never let consumers down. Both brands are always huge sellers at our shops, and we know our consumers are going to be excited for this promotion,” said Alan Woods, the COO (Size 11) of Flip Flop Shops.
