08/08/08 - Winchester, VA - Own the Zone Sporting Goods, LLC today announced that Gala Sports, a major retailer in Singapore will distribute the OTZ band dampeners for tennis racquets in Singapore and the Asia Pacific (APAC) region.
“Our store and operation is one of the most talked about in Singapore and we offer the most professional services and advice in restringing and racquet purchasing,” said Mark Kwek of Gala Sports. “Sales of OTZ band dampeners are going well in Singapore. We are anxious to introduce this fabulous product to tennis players in the region, particularly now with the onset of the Summer Olympics in Beijing. We see this as a great business opportunity for both our companies to hit the markets in APAC.”
“We are very pleased to be working with Gala Sports, the top retailer for racquet sports in Singapore,” said David Marcus, Co-President of Own the Zone Sporting Goods. ”The opportunity for Own the Zone to partner with Gala Sports and expand our sales into APAC could not have come at a better time for us. Interest in tennis in countries such as China, Japan, India, Korea and Singapore is rapidly increasing.”
“The 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing is the biggest sporting event in the world and for the first time many top ranked tennis pros are competing. This year, the highest-ranked men –, No. 1 Rafael Nadal, No.2 Roger Federer, and No. 3 Novak Djokovic - are motivated to do well in China,” said Julius Stockfish Co-President of Own the Zone Sporting Goods. “The women's field also will be Grand Slam-caliber. It's expected to include Ana Ivanovic, Venus and Serena Williams and 2008 Wimbledon women’s semi-finalist from China, Zheng Jie. In addition, this is the fourth consecutive year the men’s year-end championship, the ATP Masters Cup, will be held in Shanghai, so the timing couldn’t be better to distribute and sell our best–in-class OTZ band dampeners in APAC.”
