Sports Direct is opening a brand-new flagship store, in the heart of Birmingham, bringing a modern, innovative, and sleek experience to the city, following over £10m worth of investment.

Located on New Street and spanning four floors, the supercharged store will be the ultimate lifestyle destination for customers. Home of USC, GAME, Evans Cycles and a Belong esports arena all under one roof, Sports Direct Birmingham will combine interactive experiences and unrivalled product choice for customers, helping to champion the legend in everybody.

USC will have a dedicated area in-store, giving trend-focused customers the chance to shop the most iconic premium lifestyle brands in one space, whilst GAME and Belong will offer the latest games consoles and accessories alongside an enhanced gaming and social experience in the city centre. Evans Cycles will also offer a market-leading selection of bikes, parts, accessories, and clothing, together with a fully equipped bike workshop service.

State of the art store innovations include a bra studio, featuring a unique multi-brand bra finder tool designed to help women find the right bra for their sport; specialised sporting areas including a permanent golf putting green, running gait analysis, and Jordan basketball performance challenge, as well as a My ID Customisation area where customers can have products customised with limited edition designs.

The launch of the store also coincides with Sports Direct’s spring running campaign, ‘Get Set’, which seeks to provide a fresh perspective on the meaning of ‘fast’. In-store technology will bring to life the stories of real runners across the UK, showing it’s more than just PBs and distances covered – it’s about making running accessible for all.

Michael Murray, Chief Executive of Frasers Group, continues to be at the forefront of the brand’s monumental transformation and has been leading the development of Sports Direct’s strategy.

Speaking of the opening, Michael says: “As Sports Direct continues to evolve and expand, we’re excited to be opening our second flagship store in Birmingham. As one of the largest cities in the UK, Birmingham follows our first flagship in London and brings with it a significant investment into the city, alongside an unrivalled offering of sports and fashion under one roof.

“Sports starts at Sports Direct; and as the leading destination for sports and lifestyle, we work collaboratively alongside our brand partners such as Nike for Sports Direct and CP Company for USC, to inspire our consumers with the best product choices and experiences through our flagship stores.”

Birmingham is the second flagship location to open, following the success of Sports Direct’s first flagship on London’s Oxford Street, which reopened after an impressive £10M refurbishment last year. The ‘flagship’ strategy is an all-new proposition for Sports Direct, bringing the best of sports to the consumer with an unrivalled product choice and world-class experiences through Sports Direct’s new design and brand vision.

Sports Direct’s parent company Frasers Group is committed to raising the bar for retail with investment and expansion plans already announced for this year, with Sports Direct’s Manchester flagship set to open later this year.

Pioneering platform solutions provider smashes previous personal best by adding award-winning slot developer to the Elantil Marketplace in well under two hours 

They say lightning never strikes, but Elantil continues to prove this old adage wrong by completing even speedier integrations in its online marketplace – and this month’s addition of AvatarUX Studios has smashed the company’s previous record of two hours!

An award-winning slot developer famed for its visually-striking content and unique products, AvatarUX Studios is widely known in the iGaming industry for its innovative proprietary mechanics, including the popular PopWinsTM, as well as many other engaging features like ZapReelTM and Fortune Arrows.

Following this important strategic partnership, AvatarUX Studios’ acclaimed portfolio of content has now been added to Elantil’s Marketplace, giving the company’s customers an even wider range of gaming options to choose from – and all at cost-effective rates with terms they set themselves.

As Elantil merely facilitates the quick and easy pairing of operators with their preferred content suppliers, businesses are free to reach out to Marketplace partners directly and form their own agreements, with Elantil then wrapping things up by providing a hassle-free, one-click integration, with no revenue sharing.

In this way, operators can scale at pace and dynamically enhance the range of services they provide, while also staying in full control of their platforms and operating the way that works best for them.

John Debono, Chief Technical Officer at Elantil, said: “As speed is so often the name of the game in this industry, we’re incredibly proud to have smashed our personal best by integrating AvatarUX Studios in under two hours. With the developer’s acclaimed range of titles and award-winning mechanics now available to partners, they’ll be able to enjoy the full benefit even faster!”

Lara Falzon, CEO at AvatarUX Studios, said: “Having blazed a path in the industry with our proprietary mechanics and innovative features, we’re delighted to be able to offer our content to new operators via Elantil’s Marketplace – and the fact we completed our integration in a matter of hours shows just how quickly we’ll be able to transform their line-ups for the better.”
