To achieve this mission, we operate as an “entertainment company with a little bit of retail". Our customer journey starts in our communities where we support, empower, and celebrate to earn the right to do business there. We are deeply ingrained in our neighborhoods and work with many local partners to provide experiences and tell our stories – be it at food drives, music festivals, skate tournaments, dance contests, basketball games, or in one of our 400 state-of-the-art doors. To ensure our stories have reach, we also regularly work with global partners such as our Chief Creative Officer DJ Khaled, Snoop Dogg, Rick Ross or brands such as Sony PlayStation and Sprite.

We just entered the US market in 2019 through two acquisitions and have been extremely well-received by our communities, customers, and brand partners. As part of a well-funded, family-owned private company, we are geared up to invest more in our communities, our brand, and points of sale to unlock further growth across the US.
