Go Sport integrates the Intersport house. In its acquisition plan, Intersport promised to take over 72 Go Sport stores, but another 9 stores are not taken over and are closing their doors permanently, he learned. BFM business. These stores, which have already lowered the curtain, are located mainly in shopping centers or business areas in the west and south-east of France.
The list of permanently closed Go Sport stores:
- Lann Sevelin Activity Zone, in Lancaster (Morbihan)
- Casino K’Store mall, in Grenoble (Isere)
- Business Park Le Mans Nord, in La Chapelle-Saint-Aubin (Sarthe)
- givors 2 valleys shopping center, givers (Rhone),
- Bourse shopping center in Marseilles (Bouches du Rhône)
- rising Sun Mall, montélimar (Drome)
- Saint-Sever shopping center Rouen (Seine Maritime)
- Center Deux shopping center Saint Etienne (Loire)
- Space of the Motte, in vesoul (Upper Saone)
Employee Reclassification
Employees affected by store closures may request priority reclassification within the Intersport group if they so wish. The union-negotiated PES also provides funds for retraining projects. A monitoring committee, which will include elected Go Sport union members, will be established to monitor the smooth running of internal and external reclassifications.
In addition, 50 Go Sport stores out of the 72 acquired are preparing to switch to the Intersport brand, Intersport France boss Jacky Rihouet said last Friday on the set of BFM business.
However, these closures or passages under the Intersport brand only affect integrated stores, that is, those that depend directly on the former Go Sport France. The affiliated stores in France (around 30 under the Go Sport brand and around 40 under the Endurance Shop brand), as well as the franchised stores abroad, remain autonomous.
