The Chinese trading group Anta Sports Products Limited in the first half of the 2025 financial year was able to increase its retail revenues in important segments. This emerges from an intermediate notification that the company published on Tuesday. However, specific figures were not given. Take contributions from the German outdoor equipment Jack Wolfskin, whose takeover was carried out on May 31, are not yet included in the key data presented.
The retail revenue with products from the core brand Anta rose by an average single -digit percentage in the first half of the year. The corresponding sales with articles from the Fila label increased by a high single -digit percentage, the other brands of the group, which include descent and colon sport, recorded growth of 60 to 65 percent compared to the same period in the previous year.
In the second quarter, the pace of growth weakens
In the second quarter, however, the dynamics weakened in all segments. In the period from April to June, the retail revenue of Anta only exceeded the level of the previous year’s quarter by a low single -digit percentage. In the Fila brand, the growth was in the medium single -digit percentage range, the other labels together increased by 50 to 55 percent.
The group of companies emphasized that the information submitted only relates to the proceeds that were achieved in stores or the stores led by sales and franchise partners and in the corresponding online business. They therefore did not reflect the development of the entire group turnover.
