DICK'S Sporting Goods Partners with Gymshark
References: accessnewswire
A strategic retail partnership has been established between DICK'S Sporting Goods and the activewear brand Gymshark. This move will make the latter's products available for the first time through a wholesale channel in the United States.
This arrangement will initially be implemented in twelve of DICK'S larger-format House of Sport locations, where Gymshark merchandise will be presented in dedicated, brand-specific displays. The assortment will include popular product lines known for their performance-oriented design and technical fabrics. The partnership with DICK'S Sporting Goods is positioned as a significant expansion of Gymshark's physical retail footprint, as it follows closely the launch of its own standalone store in New York.
Brendan Kirk, VP of Merchandising at DICK'S Sporting Goods, shares: "Gymshark is redefining what modern training apparel looks like with high-performance, stylish pieces rooted in real gym culture. House of Sport is the perfect place to bring that experience to life."
