Eye On U Bands Hit It Big at the International Gift Mart in Atlanta – They Are the Next Kids Fashion Sensation
Eye On U Bands, started by two working mothers, debuted at the Atlanta International Gift and Home Market this past weekend. With distribution in almost 10 states within the first week of the product's introduction, Eye On U Bands are anticipated to be the next must have accessory for kids.
Atlanta, GA, July 21, 2011 --(PR.com)-- From the minds of 2 working moms, and the inspiration of their children, comes Eye On U Bands (http://www.eyeonubands.com). The new fashion sensation was created for kids, ages five and up, as a way to display their unique personalities and promote friendship building – all while showing off their favorite colors and creative fashion sense. Coming in 10 cool colors of eye beads, each with a different positive name, the bands give kids the ability to share and promote positive messages that provide encouragement, show off excitement, and let friends know that ‘I’ve got my Eye On U!’.
Owners of Eye On U Bands, Renee’ McDonald and Abby Port launched the new product this week in conjunction with Ali and Friends (http://www.aliandfriends.com/) at The International Gift & Home Furnishings Market in Atlanta. The successful launch resulted in agreements to begin distributing the product in almost 10 states in its first week. The immediate success of the product is exciting, but not surprising, according to Port who says that she has seen firsthand the strong appeal the bands have to both boys and girls. Between Port and McDonald, they have tested the appeal and durability of their product on their own combined six children. Port has four boys and McDonald has two girls.
According to Ali Thompson, owner of Ali and Friends, and a representative for high end children’s apparel and accessories, “I was excited to help promote the launch of Eye On U Bands. Being in the children’s apparel industry, I appreciate the strong brand concept and accessory fashion that this product can bring to any children’s apparel line. It is innovative in its brand messaging, and will be a great addition to any children’s toy and gift retailer’s inventory for the back to school and holiday seasons. I can see this product becoming a huge fad with school children all across America.”
Eye On U Bands owners, McDonald and Port are friends and neighbors outside Atlanta, GA, each with diverse professional backgrounds. Abby is a career marketing professional, while Renee’ is a practicing children’s Occupational Therapist. With a penchant for creativity and the interests of children in mind, their diverse professional backgrounds and similar family ideals combined to produce the Eye on U Bands concept.
