MORGAN HILL, Calif. (June 25, 2018) – LEM Helmets, a brand with a rich history in head protection and safety products, introduces a fresh, new bike helmet division who’s mission is to produce innovative cycling helmets for the pursuit of every rider’s everyday ‘Hell-Yes.’ Today, LEM announces its partnership with Verde Brand Communications as its agency of record, who will lead and manage integrated brand communications services for its global launch on June 27 that includes: content creation, PR, social media, email marketing, influencer campaigns, paid media, marketing, website development, and direct-to-consumer ecomm strategy.

BRAND VIDEO: Safety. Style. Performance.

In a space obsessed with tech and core-focused identity, LEM is a choice, positioned around culture and play – fitting into any lifestyle as a license to turn every ride into an adventure. LEM will launch into the global bike industry with seven distinct helmets in the road, mountain bike, commuter, and kids categories. With more than 30 years of design and tech roots in Italy, the new cycling brand focuses on safety, style, comfort, and performance to cut through the clutter and deliver high-quality helmets for life on two wheels. Weaving in proprietary technology and clean silhouettes and colorways, with head protection taken care of rider’s can focus on their adventure.

“When looking at a partner to team up with for the global launch and future growth of LEM, Verde was a natural choice for us with their fluency in-and-out of the bike industry and depth of integrated services we need to be consistent across markets and essentially create a brand from the ground up,” said Stuart Brown, LEM Helmets sales manager. “Our approach to cycling and building high-quality helmets is one that is inclusive, while ensuring we check all the boxes when it comes to safety and performance. Simply put, LEM is a lifestyle fueled by the belief that life is more fun on a bike.”

LEM will launch into the bike market direct-to-consumer, with plans to open additional retail sales channels as the brand expands. LEM’s website will officially launch on June 27, and the brand will be exhibiting at Eurobike in Friedrichshafen, Germany, July 8-10.

With leading and managing LEM’s integrated brand communications and marketing, Verde will build LEM’s messaging, brand strategy, and exposure across all brand touchpoints – from web to digital to paid – and heighten its endemic and non-endemic presence with the media.

“Partnering with LEM is an amazing opportunity on many levels, and having the ability to bring our diverse suite of integrated services to the brand and sync with their team from the start will provide a solid foundation for growth,” said Keith Cozzens, Senior Director at Verde Brand Communications. “LEM’s entering the market with high-quality product and a unique perspective and brand ethos, and we’re excited to be involved and along for the ride.”
