JD Sports to Acquire Omnichannel Retailer Go Outdoors

PILSWORTH, UK – JD Sports Fashion Plc, a UK leading retailer in sports, fashion and outdoor, took over the 58 shops and webshop of the Go Outdoors omnichannel chain. “The minimal overlap in store locations and their out of town, one stop retailer approach complements the work we have done on the high street with Blacks and Millets and further strengthens our omnichannel offering in the Outdoor sector, including cycling,” said JD Sports’ Exective Chairman Peter Cowgill.
