Adidas
Adidas first grew out of a family business in Herzogenaurach, Germany, in the 1920s. However, the company is on the move and always has been. It has had an adventurous history: from the hostile separation of two brothers’ interests in the 1940s to nearly going bust in the 1980s, and then executing two rescue operations, first by sending production offshore to Asia and then by reinventing itself into the design and marketing company we know today.
The global sports and fitness clothing industry is highly fragmented, with many brands competing, from basic discount brands to high-end fashion names. Adidas is one of the most popular brands amongst men and women when it comes to sportswear worldwide, however, even such well-established brands have to work hard to maintain their share of the market. Consumers are demanding more versatile wear with wider functionality, which means retailers continue producing new styles of sports apparel for men and women. In some instances, sports apparel companies, like Adidas and Puma, have begun collaborating with fashion designers in order to produce new styles which will broaden their product lines.
