Leatt Joins Up With a New Partner in Brazil

The settlement is over the alleged infringement by the Steel Joint Neck Brace of Leatt's rights in the Leatt-Brace Moto GPX. Under the terms of settlement, Steel Joint has stopped selling its Neck Brace product internationally and will pay an undisclosed settlement sum to Leatt.

Leatt has appointed Silva Mattos & CIA LTDA as their new distributor in Brazil. Silva Mattos & CIA LTDA, which was established in 1986, is a family business and a market leader in Brazil of motorcycle gear. Their website can be seen at www.silvamattos.com.br.

Dr. Leatt, the Chief Executive Officer of Leatt Corporation, said that he was very pleased by the outcome: "Leatt is entering the Brazilian Market vigorously with a new prestigious partner and a settlement agreement with a now former competitor. This will hopefully promote Leatt's market presence in Brazil."
