O2 Wireless
Is Cruising Into a Strauss Auto Near You
Englewood Cliffs, NJ, May 2, 2008 –
O2 Wireless,
a prepaid wireless veteran for over 12 years, is cruising
on into a Strauss Auto store near you. That’s because Strauss
Auto, the US subsidiary of Autobacs Seven Co, Ltd., headquartered
in Tokyo Japan, has teamed up with Locus Telecommunications,
Inc., the provider of O2 Wireless,
to offer O2 Wireless
in the 88 Strauss locations throughout the greater metropolitan
areas of NY, NJ and Philadelphia, PA.
Another first in the latest partnerships for O2 Wireless,
this recent milestone puts O2 Wireless as
the only national wireless service currently being offered
at Strauss Auto.
“We
are thrilled to be providing cost effective wireless services
to gearheads everywhere. We believe that our relationship
with Strauss Auto will really let us get our hands dirty and
generate some exciting new customers through this partnership,”
commented Pete Grubb, Vice President of Sales & Marketing
at Locus Telecommunications. “We are pleased to keep in line
with Strauss Auto’s devotion to their unique consumers
and product offerings that appeals to people in various
life stages and lifestyles.”
Glen Lambert, Strauss’ VP of Merchandising added, “Strauss
Auto is excited to be re-entering the prepaid wireless
arena after being out of the category for several years.
A suitable program could not be sourced until we were approached
recently by O2 Wireless.
This new program is consistent with the Autobacs complete
car life philosophy. Strauss Auto has broadened our assortments
to live this philosophy and provide everything a driver
entering our stores or service facilities needs.”
O2 Wireless and
Strauss Auto both agree that this new partnership will
provide an even greater value-proposition for their customers.
