Sport Partner reports that Euretco Sport, the Dutch licensee of Intersport, has launched a new online platform, Jouwsportzaak.nl, that acts as a central web shop for its affiliated sporting goods retailers. It is now working to develop individual web stores for its independent retail members. In Germany, the ANWR Group, which manages Sport 2000 in Germany, Switzerland and the Netherlands, has begun to put online the footwear offerings of its affiliated shoe retailers and some 500 affiliated sporting goods retailers in Germany and Switzerland through its schuhe.de website, which went live last year, and developing a new application for smartphones. Other product categories and other countries may be covered at a later stage (more in Shoe Intelligence).
