NEW!
CONCEPT STORE
One of the great new features of this edition! Upon entering the show, the visitor is immersed in the heart of a life-size concept store created in partnership with Mission Retail Design, a leading Lyon retail design agency in the sports ecosystem. Enough to be inspired by new ideas for store layouts.
MOODBOARD
Another new feature that makes Sport Achat more than a show focused solely on products: the creation of a trend book in partnership with Paris Phoenix Studio. Two objectives in this area: offer selections of products (materials, textiles, accessories, shoes, etc.) on dedicated themes and present Pantone color charts in line with the color trends for next season.
