ADMIN

sole technologySole Technology announced today that beginning January 1, 2010 it will take over distribution of its etnies and ThirtyTwo brands in Germany. Sole Technology Germany (STDE) will handle all sales and marketing in the German market going forward. The announcement comes on the heels of the company’s moves to go direct in the UK, Spain, the Netherlands, and Denmark.

Sole Technology Europe will be parting ways with its existing German distributors, Holy Sports GmbH  for etnies and the ThirtyTwo distributor Beatnuts.

According to the company:

Germany is one of the most important markets in Europe for SoleTechnology and selling direct will allow more control over the brands and strengthen etnies and ThirtyTwo across Customer Service, Marketing and Sales for all existing and new potential customers in Germany.

Through previous experiences of going direct, SoleTechnology knows it can offer the retailer a higher level of service across sales and marketing. This has led to growth in all the direct markets. SoleTechnology Europe will be expecting the same focus and growth for the German retailers.

Going direct in Germany implies that SoleTechnology Europe is parting ways with the existing etnies distributor Holy Sports GmbH and the ThirtyTwo distributor Beatnuts.

For the etnies brand, Sole Technology will deliver all Spring 10 orders that have already been placed by German retailers with Holy Sports. Moving forward from January 1st 2010, Sole Technology Europe will take care of all future etnies orders and deliveries.

For the ThirtyTwo brand, Beatnuts will take care of all remaining:
Fall / Winter 09 deliveries.
From January 1st 2010, Sole Technology Europe will take care of all future ThirtyTwo orders and deliveries.

More communication will follow to German customers upon completion of this transition.

In the meantime when any questions arise, the management of SoleTechnology Europe can be contacted at info@soletechnology.eu or by phone at +31 (0)20 355 1100

SoleTechnology Europe would like to thank Holy Sports and Beatnuts for their hard work and commitment over the last many years.
