    Sportswear Industry Data and Company Profiles Background information for the Play Fair at the Olympics Campaign Clean Clothes Campaign March 1, 2004 1 Table of Contents: page Introduction 3 Overview of the Sportswear Market 5 Asics 25 Fila 35 Kappa 51 Lotto 63 Mizuno 72 New Balance 78 Puma 87 Umbro 99 Yue Yuen 110 Li & Fung 118 References 125 2 Introduction This report was produced by the Clean Clothes Campaign as background information for the Play Fair at the Olympics campaign, which starts march 4, 2004 and aims to contribute to the improvement of labour conditions in the sportswear industry. More information on this campaign and the “Play Fair at Olympics Campaign report itself can be found at www.fairolympics.org The report includes information on Puma Fila, Umbro, Asics, Mizuno, Lotto, Kappa, and New Balance. They have been labeled “B” brands because, in terms of their market share, they form a second rung of manufacturers in the sportswear industries, just below the market leaders or the so-called “A” brands: Nike, Reebok and Adidas. The report purposefully provides descriptions of cases of labour rights violations dating back to the middle of the nineties, so that campaigners and others have a full record of the performance and responses of the target companies to date. Also for the sake of completeness, data gathered and published in the Play Fair at the Olympics campaign report are copied in for each of the companies concerned, coupled with the build-in weblinks this provides an easy search of this web-based document. Obviously, no company profile is ever complete.
