United States Air Force Academy

Eleiko was contracted by the United States Air Force Academy to install an impressive 48 Eleiko IWF Weightlifting Competition Sets into its training centre in Colorado Springs. Cadets now train on Eleiko IWF weightlifting Competition Bars and have access to Eleiko IWF Weightlifting Competition Discs ranging from 2.5 kg to 25 kg.

Eleiko worked directly with the purchasing department and the strength coach at the Air Force Academy to plan and coordinate the delivery of a first-class facility. From the moment the strength coach reached out to us, it was clear the Air Force Academy wanted only the best of the best in terms of equipment. They decided to go for the Eleiko Competition equipment, which is widely regarded as the gold standard for bars and discs within the strength and conditioning world. In addition to providing world-class equipment, Eleiko was also able to be cost competitive winning the work in an open market bid. Eleiko facilitated an on-time delivery and stayed in close communication with Air Force Academy staff to provide ongoing updates on the shipping and installation. We contracted our shipping partner, a company called TransCon – a division of Expeditors International, who are highly experienced in providing on-time deliveries all over CONUS. Real-time tracking information provided the Air Force Academy purchasing department and athletic staff with regular updates on the shipment, and we worked closely with the team at the Academy to ensure the delivery was smooth and seamless and allowed for a quick installation into the facility so the cadets training was disrupted as minimally as possible.
