RSK Sports to sell VATA Brasil brand
Scotland-based online retailer RSK Sports has signed an exclusive partnership deal with VATA Brasil, a sports and yoga apparel brand.
RSK Sports is now the distributor of this range of women’s fitness clothing throughout the UK and Ireland. The apparel is designed in Vancouver, Canada, and manufactured in Brazil.
Raymond Simpson, managing director of RSK Sports said: “The United Kingdom’s improving economy and retailers wanting to take advantage of the active wear and yoga apparel trends makes business both possible and very attractive for new and exciting labels like VATA Brasil.
“We are very excited to have this chance to work with VATA Brasil, and to bring this range of active wear to the wholesale and retail markets of the UK and Ireland. We are sure that the quality and flair of the products will prove to be very popular.”
As sole distributor, RSK Sports will be able to distribute VATA Brasil clothing wholesale to companies throughout the UK and Ireland, as well as sell directly to customers through its online store.
“We’ve long been interested in expanding in the European Market, and more recently, we’ve received increasing expressions of interest from specialty sport retailers, fitness centres, spas, yoga studios and department stores in major urban UK centres,” said Daniel Langevin, chief operating officer, VATA Brasil.
“Working with RSK Sports gives us a distribution base to satisfy retailer demands for quick order shipping and replenishment throughout the UK,” said Mario Gomes, CEO of VATA Brasil.
The brand offers a line of active wear infused with Brazilian style. Using OneFit technology in the fabric, the company claims its clothing is flexible, supportive and comfortable.
VATA Brasil currently operates showrooms and distribution facilities in Vancouver, Seoul, Korea, Miami, Florida and now the United Kingdom, as well as being represented throughout the US, Denmark, Australia and the Caribbean.
