Expanding Yorkshire-based brand Zwingo seeks investors to help with global expansion
Founded just five years ago by ex-cricketer and athlete Brett Hillary, Zwingo, a premium sports and athletic wear provider, has secured a loyal customer base including sports clubs, schools and teams attracted by its stylish designs, industry knowledge and eco-friendly credentials. Its products represent innovation, performance and sustainability, and aim to deliver on the pitch and for shareholders.
The business had been supported by Yorkshire’s Growth Hubs – groups working across the country with local, national, public and private sector partners to help promising businesses thrive.
Now, Zwingo is seeking investors and clients to help it deliver on plans to become a billion-pound business, with a bold vision to take on some of the biggest brands in sport and enter the lucrative world of global sport.
Fit for the future
It may be a relatively new name, but this brand has bold ambitions; Award-winning entrepreneur Brett Hillary thinks that with his professional sporting background and business drive, he has a winning formula to be a challenger, opening up huge potential markets for investors and clients.
Investor opportunities
Brett has significant recent contracts secured in the global commercial sports property market, which give the Zwingo brand incredible TV and live exposure, crossing a huge spectrum of sporting genres.
He is also hoping to tie in with the sporting elite – whether that’s individual athletes or world-renowned teams – to create a winning formula.
The CEO said: “With significant recent contracts secured in the global commercial sports property market, Zwingo is poised for its next phase of growth. The brand's leadership, unique positioning, and trademarked status globally has set the stage for Zwingo to become a billion-dollar sports and athletic wear company. The future of Zwingo shines brightly as it paves its way to success in the sportswear market.”

Whether it's running, training, or competing, Zwingo's products are designed to optimize athletic performance without compromising on style.”
For the team
Teams partnering with Zwingo will love the client-centred approach; this means club wear that works as a brand and on the pitch, and which offers clubs monetisation opportunities to increase revenue.
Re-inventing the future
What sets Zwingo apart from other challengers is a huge commitment to R and D into technology in sports apparel. With a development lab, Zwingo is forever researching, adapting and improving what it offers to elite sportsmen and women. The company has a firm eye on its carbon footprint too, and recycles where it can in all processes.
Investing in people
Zwingo plans to create 50 new jobs over the next 12-18 months, making a significant contribution to the local economy.
Zwingo’s name is spreading far and wide and the brand has already been recognised by the respected website Business Insider as one of the most exciting companies in the industry.
