New Delhi, November 4th 2015: Reinforcing its commitment to
women and strengthening its position as a leading fitness player in the
country, Reebok India today announced the launch of its latest 'Fit-Hub'
concept store in Delhi's popular GK1, M Block market. The store was inaugurated
by Reebok Brand ambassador - Nargis Fakhri, along with Dave Thomas, Managing
Director, Reebok & Adidas India.
Kick-starting with a big-bang and amidst high-levels of curiosity in the
busy GK 1, M Block Market, Nargis Fakhri joined Reebok trainers in a combat
training routine, as unsuspecting and surprised shoppers looked on. Showing
off her powerful punches and kicks dressed in fashionable and chic Reebok
fitness wear, Nargis tore through a Reebok backdrop and revealed the new
store to excited fans and fellow fitness enthusiasts gathered around.
Commenting on the launch, Dave Thomas, Managing Director, Reebok &
Adidas India said, "It has been our constant endeavor over the past
few years to establish Reebok as the leading premium fitness brand in
the country. Moreover, our strong focus towards catering to women's fitness
needs has led to the category contributing to over 40% of our overall
business in selected stores. We hope to grow this category significantly
in the coming years whilst inspiring more women across the country to
adopt the 'Fit for Life' attitude & mindset. Reebok partnered with
Nargis on this fitness journey 3 years back and it has been overwhelming
to mark yet another milestone with her for the Brand as we launch our
latest Fit-Hub."
Seen in her fitness element at the launch of the store, Reebok India's
brand ambassador NargisFakhri commented, "My association with Reebok
goes back 3 years now, and I look forward to each campaign and activity
with as much vigour as I did when I just came on-board. The new store
looks absolutely great, and the new women's collection is all the more
fabulous. I believe that fitness is something that should come as second-nature
to everyone, because it not only makes you look good, but also makes you
feel good mentally."
