Astral has appointed In-Sport Fashions Inc. as their Canadian distributor. Previously handled directly from Astral’s facilities in Asheville, NC, Canadian retailers will now have the opportunity to order Astral footwear directly in Canada.
“We chose In-Sport for their experience, their commitment to service and their ability to bring in brands to the Canadian market,” said Christie Dobson, vice president of sales and marketing. “They provide a full service, sales and marketing experience for the consumer and the retailer. Astral synchs well with their portfolio of high-quality, well respected brands like Osprey and Exped. They have a well-seasoned team along with deep knowledge of outdoor products; which makes it easy for In-Sport to successfully deliver the Astral product to the Canadian market.”
“In-Sport is delighted to have been appointed as Astral’s Canadian distributor,” said Dana Nelson, president of In-Sport Fashions. “Astral is a well-known brand in the watersport business and the company has an environmental consciousness that translates into extremely compelling technical products. We believe in the brand and products and see a very good potential in expanding their reach into a more lifestyle market.”
The appointment will take effect with the presentation and delivery of the Spring 2018 footwear collection.
