Their efforts are an indispensable part of our business development. "

These initiatives have laid the foundation for the implementation of China's strategic plan to "2015." this unprecedented plan has fully integrated all the brands, channels and relevant functional departments of Adidas.

The plan aims to achieve a two digit annual sales growth rate in China in 2015 and regain its leadership in China.

According to the plan, Adidas will add 2500 stores in the low line cities in the next few years, while the number of cities covered by shops will increase from about 550 last year to more than 1400.

Many parts of China's strategy toward "2015" are changing from planning to implementation: in the series of sports performance, the group takes the initiative to attack the high speed cities, and plans to expand its market share in the most potential emerging markets. In the sports fashion series, the group will soon introduce strategies to improve the classic brand's popularity and help NEO brand penetrate into the lower tier cities with its excellent performance price ratio.
