    About Athlete's Foot

    Robert and David Lando had a unique vision in 1971--to open a store specializing in athletic footwear. That year they opened the first The Athlete's Foot in Pittsburgh. The first franchise opened in 1972 in Oshkosh, Wisconsin, and the first international location opened in 1978 in Adelaide, Australia. The Athlete's Foot now operates company-owned and franchise locations in more than 40 countries. The company develops stores in malls, shopping districts and as freestanding locations. Each store sells name-brand athletic footwear and apparel. There are also The Athlete's Foot For Her stores, which specialize in athletic footwear and apparel for girls and women.
    The Athlete’s Foot is more than just a retail store; it’s a destination for athletic street style. At The Athlete’s Foot, we want to be known for encouraging our customers to break the rules and explore the unexpected. So we’re transforming into a place with a pulse on the street that offers them the chance to craft their own story through clothing and style.

    About Street Stadia

    StreetStadia transforms an open space into a dynamic sports and activity arena in a matter of minutes. At its core, StreetStadia is about constructing a safe and fun environment around the vibrant, energetic, team-centric spirit at the heart of football and other group activities. StreetStadia is the first product of its kind to be manufactured in the UK and is already providing communities across the country with their own mobile sports and activities venue, where people can play, learn, coach, educate and build relations. It is especially successful at safely challenging inappropriate and anti-social behaviour. With great strides of development in America, Canada and the Middle East, Street Stadia is becoming a much sought after brand. To this end the company is now looking to appoint exclusive Master Distributors to take their Street Stadia brand forward around the world. Not only does it offer the potential of huge financial returns, but it is truly a business that gives you a buzz to wake up to in the morning. With teams like Manchester United and Liverpool using Street Stadia to great effect, and with Police and Fire services stating that wherever it is used in the community it has cut down crime and anti social behaviour by 60%, then we know we have a winner. In a few years when Street Stadia is an Internationally recognized brand, your exclusive Master Distributor rights could be worth a business fortune to you. Street Stadia is not only a greatly desired product for sales, renting out, birthday parties, shows and all outdoor venues, schools, local soccer clubs and all other sports outlets, but great revenue can be brought in from advertising and from Sponsorship. Street Stadia is what you would call a "wholesome" product because it promotes all the great values of family life, health, sport, camaraderie and community spirit.
