25 August, 2006 | by Retail Bulletin
Blacks Leisure Group plc has announced that it has signed a five-year licensing agreement with Gazal Corporation for the MAMBO brand in Europe.
The agreement covers wholesaling and retailing activity for MAMBO throughout Europe (excluding Spain). Blacks Leisure Group will take responsibility for the four Mambo stores currently operating in the UK and for managing the brand’s growth in Europe.
The group also announced that it has entered into a strategic partnership with Evans Cycles in the UK. This will see Evans Cycles, in a trial basis initially, offer shop within shop concessions in some of the new, larger Blacks out-of-town stores.
