This will allow the latter to create within itself a group specializing in sport and protection called Sphere Brands Group which will be made up of Racer, Cébé and Fightart.
And thanks to this, the group sees the arrival of a prestigious gondola head in the person of Teddy Riner, star judoka with multiple world titles and two Olympic gold medals. In fact, the champion joins the capital of Sphere Brands Group and his board of directors because he was quite simply the founder of Fightart, created in 2022. “The entry of Teddy Riner into the capital is not only symbolic of sporting excellence, but also a guarantee of the relevance and solidity of our project.

He would be so proud to participate in this rapprochement! Racer-Cébé-Fightart are three iconic brands that we will develop by taking advantage of the commercial, administrative, logistical and marketing synergies created for this purpose.
