Outdoor brand Salewa: Lockdown initiated important strategic changes

Covid-19 has not only changed the retail landscape. With it, the industry has to also adjust to completely changed parameters. The Italian Oberalp Group has taken the pandemic as an opportunity to set a new strategic course.

The Italian Oberalp Group is a heavyweight in the European outdoor segment. With its six outdoor brands Salewa, Dynafit, Wild Country, Evolv, Pomoca and LaMunt (the launch of the women's mountain sports brand is planned for the winter season 2021/22), the company supplies around 5,600 retailers worldwide and 251 monobrand stores.

The group made headlines last spring when, in view of the pandemic, it was one of the first companies in the outdoor industry to openly communicate the measures it would take to adapt to the changed situation. This involved much more than just postponing a few items in a collection for two seasons.
