Who is Flatpak
We are Flatpak Ltd and this is our story:
Our company has emerged from our Young Enterprise Scheme in 2012. We are a team of enthusiastic young entrepreneurs who enjoy a good challenge and feel strongly about improving the safety on farms. Over the last six weeks we have participated in an incredible accelerator programme ‘Venture Up’ and we are now ready to launch our product into the Farming community. Our team comprises of Anika Bayly and Emily Tasker (co-founders of Flatpak) and Kryten Vlug and Alysha Terrizzi who have recently joined our team.


What is the Flatpak:
A safe and hassle-free storage solution for farmers transporting tools and other equipment of their quad bikes.

It’s safety without the hassle
 
Flatpak:
• Has a 3yr warrantee
• Is made with non-rip technology
• Strong and flexible
• The straps are bolted into the bag to  ensure it is strong and safe
• Easy to use
• Big enough to hold your larger equipment so you can travel safely without compromising efficiency.
• Flatpak is a proactive way to save flow-on expenses of collecting a dropped tool from the quad bike in the combine or baler the next season. 


PLEASE NOTE:  In such a fast paced and changing environment our design has improved further from the photos included. Your Flatpak will also include two heavy duty handles for easier transferring of equipment and a slight increase in size (now: 1.04m long) allowing you to maximise the space on the back of your quad bike!


Pledges!
We need you to help us! Whether you donate $5 or $5,000, or share our campaign we are grateful for your support. Your contribution will help us to reduce our production costs through enabling us to order in bulk. This allows us to release our first 100 Flatpaks and pass on the discounts to you!

Rewards up for grabs:
 
$5- Sweet As
We will ‘shout-out’ your name in an incredible thank you video from our team to you!

$10- Yarn

We will talk the 'hind legs off a donkey!' and perform a 30 second speech on a chosen topic of your choice! This will be recorded and uploaded on Pledge Me, Twitter and Facebook for everyone to enjoy!

 
$20- Walk a mile in my shoes!
Ever wanted to be a farmer? Now you can be! We will swap your face with a real life farmer’s and post this on our Facebook page along with a personalised thank you note from our team.
