Description

Sporting Goods Stores

Brief Excerpt from Industry Overview Chapter:

Companies in this industry operate physical retail stores specializing in sporting goods, athletic and fitness wear, fitness equipment, and related products. Major companies include Bass Pro Shops, Big 5 Sporting Goods, Cabela's, DICK'S Sporting Goods, Hibbett Sports, and Recreational Equipment, Inc (REI) (all based in the US), as well as Canadian Tire (Canada), Decathlon and Groupe GO Sport (both in France), and Sport Direct International (UK).

COMPETITIVE LANDSCAPE

Sporting goods retail has faced significant disruption in recent years. Many chains including City Sports, Sports Authority, Sports Chalet, MC Sports, and most recently family-owned Modell's Sporting Goods have gone out of business. While the full extent of the damage to the industry from the economic shutdown due to COVID-19 remains to be seen, demand for sporting goods plummeted as retailers closed up shop. Small- and medium-sized operators, especially those without a significant online presence, are especially vulnerable to the economic effects of the pandemic.

PRODUCTS, OPERATIONS & TECHNOLOGY

Sports equipment accounts for 70% of industry revenue; clothing, 20%; and footwear, 10%. Major equipment categories include team sports, exercise, hunting and firearms, golf, fishing, and camping.

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
