Domestic Sports Brands Lack The Basic Market And It Is Difficult To Change The Pattern In Short Time.

Su Bingtian became the first Chinese to enter the world 100m finals in 9 seconds and 99. However, the collective aphasia of Chinese sports brands in the world championships came from the exclusive cooperation of official partners. More importantly, the lack of field sports and the atmosphere of mass participation in the domestic market were not yet cost-effective for sports brands.

Although the market for track and field is not popular in China, some enterprises have already begun to explore.

PEAK has been a partner of the IAAF World Track and field challenge (Beijing Railway Station) for two consecutive years, providing equipment for staff and some contestants. In early 2015, PEAK also served as the official partner of the European indoor Athletics Championships, providing professional athletes, professional staff, and professional equipment for training and living.

At present, track and field are relatively small in China, and are in the climbing stage, unlike mass events such as marathons.

At the same time, the domestic track and field sports products are relatively few. As a professional sports brand, PEAK's current track and field actions are only reserves, and the specific market maturity is uncertain.

2015 the Beijing IAAF World Championships (hereinafter referred to as "track and field world championships") is the largest international sports event held in China since 2008. The World Athletics Championships are one of the world's three major events concurrently with the world cup and the Olympic Games. It is also a market for all sporting goods to appear and snatch. The global audience has seen a lot of brands such as Adidas, Nike, Puma and so on. But the Chinese sports brand has not been seen. In fact, the Chinese sports brand has never entered the battlefield.

As an official sponsor of the international Athletics Federation, Adidas has a unique exclusive advantage. Gao Jiali, managing director of Adidas group Greater China, said: "I am very glad to see people's enthusiasm for the IAAF World Championships.

We are concerned about the development of sports in China and are committed to helping all levels of runners get the best performance.

This cooperation with the track and field world championships confirms our industry leadership and commitment to sports.

Before the start of the world athletics championships, Nike and the track and Field Association of America signed a contract lasting 23 years, worth 500 million US dollars.

It will continue to be the exclusive supplier and sponsor of the American track and field association and sportsman shoes and apparel.

Even though Puma, which was repeatedly sold out, also followed Boulter's first rush to the finish line, in 2010, Puma continued to sign Boulter with the highest sponsorship agreement in the history of track and field.

In CEO, Zhang Qing, a key sports Consultancy Co., Ltd., in Europe, athletics is the mother of sports. They worship the muscles and strength of the body, while Chinese traditional culture is totally different. After the founding of new China, the national strength is limited, and concentrated resources are focused on table tennis, feather ball, diving and other advantages. Limited track and field sports, track and field has not yet become a high public participation project, and the attention is relatively low.

"

Concern is the degree of attention. If a sport is not very concerned, their willingness to invest will not be great.

Zhang Qing believes that some running, jumping and throwing sports events require high technical requirements for shoes, which is also a threshold.

Besides, track and field events involve equipment besides shoes and clothing, and the sales channels of equipment are mainly gymnasium, school and other units, and personal consumption is not much.

It is worth noting that for owning

The track and field world championships are oriented towards the global market, while the vast majority of the target consumers of domestic sports brands are in the country. "If we put a lot of money into it, then a part of the brand communication opportunities will be wasted."

This is one of the reasons why there are many international brands and few domestic brands in the world championships.

Liu Xiang believes that the emergence of such superstars like Su Bingtian will bring a breakthrough to the promotion of track and field sports.

Zhang Qingye agrees with this saying that "Su Bingtian, Zhang Peimeng and Li Jinzhe, who have breakthrough achievements and handsome sports stars, should play a certain role in leading the masses to participate in track and field sports. At the same time, we should popularize the two parts of the track and field sports that need sports and education in the basic education stage."

However, Zhang Qing believes that athletics can not be expected to become a popular sport in a short time.
