Adidas, a German company with roots in Herzogenaurach near Nuremberg, tells a quintessential success story. The work of brothers Adi and Rudi Dassler, Dassler Brothers Shoe Factory focused on creating the best shoe for each sport and was one of the earliest to partner with athletes for promotion and feedback. After World War II the brothers went their separate ways, with Adi forming adidas. A new generation of adidas athletes symbolizes the innovative technologies and contemporary design of adidas products. This concept centres on an extensive communication campaign around the new basketball superstar Kobe Bryant, who already enjoys cult status in the USA as the youngest NBA player of all time.Anna Kournikova in tennis, and David Beckham and Alessandro del Piero in soccer are just some of the other exceptional talents in their sport who are on the way to become the stars of the future, with adidas.On January 31, 2006, adidas-Salomon AG announces that it has closed its acquisition of Reebok International Ltd. providing the new adidas Group with a footprint of around € 9.5 billion ($11.8 billion) in the global athletic footwear, apparel and hardware market.We are delighted with the closing of the Reebok transaction, which marks a new chapter in the history of our Group,” says adidas-Salomon AG Chairman and CEO Herbert Hainer. “By combining two of the most respected and well-known brands in the worldwide sporting goods industry, the new Group will benefit from a more competitive worldwide platform, well-defined and complementary brand identities, a wider range of products, and a stronger presence across teams, athletes, events and leagues.”With a history that dates back to 1895, when JW Foster created the first track spike in Bolton, England, Reebok began operating in the US in 1979 and started aggressive international expansion in the late 1980sAt the Investor Day in London on April 11, the adidas Group and the National Basketball Association announce an 11-year strategic global merchandising partnership that will make the adidas brand the official uniform and apparel provider for the NBA, the Women’s National Basketball Association (WNBA) and the NBA Development League (D-League) beginning with the 2006-07 NBA season. The Reebok brand will continue to be a global marketing partner of the NBA and will maintain the ability to create NBA branded footwear.At the Annual General Meeting in Fürth/Germany on May 11, shareholders approve the renaming of adidas-Salomon AG to adidas AG.adidas is the clear winner of the 2006 FIFA World Cup™. “We exceeded all of our football and business goals for the World Cup.” With these words, Herbert Hainer sums up adidas’ role as Official Sponsor, Supplier and Licensee of the 2006 FIFA World Cup™. By achieving record football sales of over € 1.2 billion, up more than 30% from 2005, adidas succeeds in further expanding its global football market leadership position. A record 3 million replica jerseys are sold, including 1.5 million jerseys of the German national team. In comparison, adidas sold 1.5 million federation jerseys and 250,000 German jerseys at the last World Cup in 2002.The next major football events are just around the corner. In June, UEFA and adidas sign a long-term partnership granting adidas the global sponsorship rights for the UEFA EURO 2008™ in Austria and Switzerland. In addition, UEFA and adidas extend their UEFA Champions League partnership, making adidas the Official Ball Supplier for the UEFA Champions League until 2009.In September, Reebok launches its new global ad campaign “When Did I Know?”, celebrating the individuality and exploring the defining moments of its NFL superstars. As a reflection of Reebok’s brand positioning of individuality and authenticity, each ad depicts the precise instant when Reebok’s top players knew they were destined for greatness. As the official outfitter of the NFL, Reebok is the only brand with the ability to show some of the league’s best athletes, including Peyton Manning (Indianapolis Colts), Vince Young (Tennessee Titans) and Roy Williams (Dallas Cowboys), in this unique and poignant light.Additionally further successful collaborations with Yohji Yamamoto and Stella McCartney are both extended until 2010.n November the adidas Group announces the sale of the Greg Norman Collection wholesale business to MacGregor Golf Company.adidas announces the acquisition of the Salomon Group (with the brands Salomon, TaylorMade, Mavic and Bonfire). This acquisition creates one of the world's leading sporting goods groups with a portfolio of outstanding brands. The name of the new group will be changed to adidas-Salomon AG. The complementary fit of the two companies is excellent, both in terms of products (sports footwear, apparel and equipment for adidas, winter sports equipment, golf clubs and cycling components for the Salomon Group) and in terms of geographic balance. Salomon has an especially strong presence in North America and Japan, while adidas is very well established in Europe. The new group becomes the second largest sporting goods marketer worldwide.
