SKLZ, a specialist in sport training and portable fitness equipment, entered into an exclusive distribution agreement with Mint Green Group (MGG), a leading Canadian sports lifestyle distributor.
The new partnership with MGG will further enhance SKLZ’s presence in Canada and continue to expand its market share in the U.S, Europe, Middle East, Latin America and Asia Pacific. With the aid of its distributors, SKLZ engages young athletes and coaches through the introduction of sport skill and performance improvement training gear, as well as providing adults who strive for a healthy lifestyle with easy-to-use fitness gear that propels them toward their goals.
“We create innovative sport training and performance product and content that is tested with elite athletes and coaches at our Carlsbad facility,” said SKLZ President and CEO Tim Wiseman. “At SKLZ, we are driven by the passion and confidence gained through the sport lifestyle and are excited to partner with the Mint Green Group who has a solid track record of successfully building brands in Canada. Together we will support the next generation of athletes.”
“Mint Green Group is thrilled to be the exclusive distributor for SKLZ in Canada,” said Bob Cote, president, Mint Green Group. “Connecting with athletes through the brands we represent – from elite competitors to casual participants – has always been at the core of our business. SKLZ will be a natural fit with our sales, product and marketing teams and we are excited by the opportunity to get more Canadians engaged with this impressive brand,” added Cote.
The SKLZ Canadian product assortment will include sport training and performance improvement gear for soccer, baseball, football, basketball and golf as well as dryland training for Ice Hockey and fitness equipment for workout facilities and personal use.
