DON’T OVERLOOK ARCHERY Archery is part of the UK’s heritage - for centuries it was compulsory for men to practise on the butts every Sunday morning after church. And it’s still a sport that people want to try. However, archery specialist Petron has found that some sports retailers are nervous about stocking archery products, mainly because of a perception that they require a significant amount of product knowledge. But, says manager Sue Matthews, Petron supplies beginner’s archery equipment that is very simple to sell. She explains: “We have bow kits where a customer gets everything they need in one package - bow, arrows, finger and arm protectors. “All retail staff need to know is what size of bow to recommend. Petron offers an easy-to-follow guidance sheet or face-to-face training, so staff can feel confident in the products they are selling.” Advice is available from [email protected], www.petron.info or 01296 632573. 06 SPORTS INSIGHT News 12/2/07 10:22 am Page 2 COLUMBIA OPENS NEW SHOWROOM Diary Dates Columbia Sportswear Company has opened new showroom facilities in the Kendal area consisting of three showrooms displaying combined apparel, ISPO CHINA WINTER footwear, accessories and equipment in the company’s Titanium, Active and MARCH 14-17 Lifestyle product categories.

  • Legea, Nasce Agli Inizi Degli Anni Novanta, a Pompei Dai Coniugi Acanfora
    STORIA DEL MARCHIO Il marchio Legea, nasce agli inizi degli anni novanta, a Pompei dai coniugi Acanfora. Produce prevalentemente abbigliamento e accessori per il calcio. Successivamente, si specializza nella produzione di materiale tecnico per altre discipline sportive. L’evoluzione e la crescita dell’azienda sono dovute: • La sponsorizzazione nel 2003 del Napoli calcio • La collaborazione con le squadre del Montenegro e di Gibilterra e di altre squadre italiane in serie C. • Nel 2019/2020 l’accordo con la FIGC per la fornitura dell’abbigliamento sportivo dell’Associazione Italiana Arbitri PUNTI DI FORZA DELL’AZIENDA • Ottimo rapporto qualità prezzo • start-up control: l’affiliato è seguito nelle varie fasi fino all’apertura dello store • Costi di affiliazione pari allo zero • Rapidità di evasione degli ordini MADE IN ITALY? • Fornitori : sconosciuti. Inizialmente si parlava di made in Italy. • Legea è stata al centro di una vicenda giudiziaria: infatti l’azienda aveva fatto produrre i suoi prodotti in Cina e li aveva poi importati in Italia, apponendovi poi il marchio dell’azienda. • La Cassazione però ha rigettato il ricorso del Procuratore di Napoli, rilevando che la qualità dei prodotti dipende dall’identità del produttore e non dall’ambiente geografico di fabbricazione. • Il comportamento della Legea non ha quindi integrato il reato. CLIENTI Legea ha una clientela in cinquanta paesi, nei più importanti continenti. In Italia sono presenti 180 store mono-marchio i c.d. «Legea Point» Ha intrapreso diverse relazioni di sponsorship in varie società sportive calcistiche. CONCORRENTI DEL SETTORE CONCORRENTI La concorrenza nell’abbigliamento sportivo è forte. I principali concorrenti sono Nike con l’15,61% e Adidas con l’11,81% del mercato, con prodotti ad alto costo e alta qualità.

  • Club Licensing Benchmarking Report Financial Year 2016
    The European Club Footballing Landscape Club Licensing Benchmarking Report Financial Year 2016 2 Club Licensing Benchmarking Report: Financial Year 2016 Foreword Welcome to the ninth edition of the UEFA Club Licensing Benchmarking Report, which once again focuses on financial and other off-the-pitch developments in European club football. In this latest edition of our report, the success story of European football stands out once more. It shows that UEFA’s regulatory role in financial fair play continues to steady the ship of European football finances and provide a basis for unprecedented growth, investment and profitability. It also demonstrates that while the game remains essentially the same on the pitch, it continues to change significantly off the pitch, making it essential that we at UEFA and our other stakeholders continue to remain vigilant and true to our values. This detailed report shows that the positive revenue, investment and profitability trends identified in last year’s report are continuing. The underlying health of European club football is highlighted, with the 700 top-division clubs together generating the highest operating profits before transfers in history and year-on-year revenue growth of almost 10%. Clubs are generating revenue but they are also investing in assets and infrastructure, thanks in part to UEFA’s financial fair play regulations. For the first time, club investments in stadiums and other long-term fixed assets exceeded €1bn in 2016. It is therefore perhaps not surprising that an increasing number of national associations and leagues, both inside and outside Europe, are starting to implement their own versions of financial fair play.

    LUISS TEACHING CASES Macron. The Strategic Role of Sponsorship to Sustain Brand Growth Marco Francesco Mazzù Luiss University In cooperation with Macron Management and Antea Gambicorti TEACHING CASES 2020 ISBN 978-88-6105-571-1 Introduction It was 7pm and the sun was going down the hills of Valsamoggia. The CEO Gianluca Pavanello was observing the work in progress for the Macron new headquarters : two buildings of 22.000 sqm crossed by a canal. Facing the building site of the new offices and distribution center, symbol of the fast growth of the company, the CEO asked himself: “We have done so much until now, but right now we are in front of a crossroads. How can we continue to achieve growth in the complex context where we operate?”. From a unique Italian distributor of baseball equipment on behalf of MacGregor USA and other American baseball brands, in 1971, Macron then twisted its offer, entering in the arena of profes- sional football sponsorships. This signed the company trajectory towards the sports sponsorships, before only in Italy and then also abroad, until to reach today 71% of revenues abroad and 29% in Italy. The Macron rapid and stable improvement, especially in teamwear as its core business, reached the highest point in 2018, when the UEFA gave to the company three recognitions: the definition of Macron in “The European Club footballing landscape” (2018) as the third most im- portant supplier in the world of European football, after Nike and Adidas; the decision to choose the Italian sports brand as its official partner for the supply of apparel to the smaller football fed- erations for the years 2018-2022; choose again Macron as Official Referee kits supplier to all the referees of all the UEFA competitions (the most important: Champions League, Europa League, Euro 2020 and Nations League).
