ALL RETAILERS

invited to come to the party All Southern African retailers, whether they are in Aberdeen or Zastron, Angola or Zimbabwe, are invited to join in the 2010 FIFA World Cup™ celebrations by attracting football fans and patriotic South Africans to their stores with official licensed merchandise.

Whether they are football supporters or not, the 2010 FIFA World Cup™ will be this decade’s most memorable event for all South Africans — and most of them have not yet fully grasped the scope of the event. But, as kick-off nears, the teams start to arrive, the fans flock to our cities and the excitement grows, the majority of South Africans will want to show their true patriotic colours.

Retailers from the remotest to the most populated parts of Southern Africa can make sure that their communities join the month-long football party and not remain wall-flowers, simply by bringing the World Cup to them in the form of licensed products.

But, apart from locals buying items to commemorate the 2010 FIFA World Cup™, football is fanatically followed in more countries than there are members of the United Nations and they are getting ready to come: within ten days after the third phase of ticket applications had opened overseas supporters from 166 countries had applied for 114 237 tickets online.

In addition, the 32 participating member associations have started selling their allocated team specific tickets. According to Horst R. Schmidt, Chairman of the FIFA Ticketing SubCommittee, “In comparison with the previous editions of the FIFA World Cups, the latest ticket applications figures are impressive.”

companies (at the time of going to press) to produce a wide range of products to satisfy every potential customer’s taste, need, nationality or age group (as can be seen in this catalogue).

This will be the first World Cup event that the Global Brands Group licenses for FIFA, as the organisation had run their own licensing programme until 2006. Founded in 2003, the Global Brands Group also has the worldwide licensing rights for wellknown brands like the PGA, FIBA, Disney, Warner Bros and in 2005 FIFA gave them the rights to appoint licensees for all current FIFA event marks (including U17, women and beach soccer) as well as all historical mascots, emblems, marks etc.

team understands the needs and problems faced by local distributors and retailers. General Manager Paul Zacks, who joined the Global Brands Group in January 2008, was responsible for securing the Springbok sponsorship for Canterbury when he was CEO of the company distributing the brand in SA. Retail Sales and Merchandising Manager Darryll Kroll worked with him as sales manager at Canterbury, where Global Brands Group South Africa office and marketing manager Analize Pedregal was the marketing manager.

Zacks recently completed a study of the SA counterfeit market for his MBA degree from UCT and came to the conclusion that one of the three Previously, the licensing programme was main drivers for the growth of the counterfeit problem is the lack of limited to the host country – now the Global Brands Group has taken availability of product when there is a high demand. it globally, which has several benefits for retailers stocking 2010 FIFA World Cup™ merchandise. For instance, FIFA is becoming a recognised The history of product sold for previous World Cups — rugby or football global brand name that needs no introduction to international tourists. — shows that demand had far outnumbered expectations. In 2006 adidas had ordered more than double the number of German team This also means that they have access to the best manufacturers in shirts they expected to sell during the tournament — and these were the world — for example, glass objects from ARC in France. This time sold out during the first week. “I can only appeal to retailers to order there is only one licensee per category — this not only prevents overenough stock well in advance, as many of the licensed products cannot saturation of the market, but also ensures that the product could be be manufactured at short notice,” says Zacks. “If you run out of stock, sourced from best in class suppliers. you’ll lose many potential sales.”

“Our job is to protect FIFA and we therefore have to vet all aspects He suggests that retailers should think about the specific needs of of the manufacturing and distribution process very carefully,” explains tourists when ordering product. “For example, they might come Zacks. “We are very careful about the conditions under which the prepared for sunny South Africa and then find that our winter is much products are made and where they are made.

These include product categories like selling licensed products during the World Cup year,” says Zacks. Yet bags, balls, key chains and headwear.

A THEME for every store

F

The diversity of product, themes and designs of the 2010 FIFA World Cup™ merchandise enables retailers to individualise their product offering

rom the bold browns and golds of Africa, the bright colours of the logo, the happy face of Zakumi, or the stylish swirls of the Rainbow Nation… there is a theme and product style that will enable retailers to individualise their 2010 FIFA World Cup™ merchandise. Four of the themes have been developed by Global Brands Group South Africa specifically for the 2010 FIFA World Cup™ By concentrating on a theme or combining themes, the look of the World Cup area in one store will be completely different to that of a retailer down the road. At a glance, customers could believe that the product offering is unique to the store.

retail categories, features all of the event’s intellectual property, including logos, emblems, word marks, etc. (see below) The premium quality range is aimed at the more upscale international markets and select retailers. Premium products, which could include Collectables and Limited Edition items, are produced according to top quality international standards, and sold at higher price points.

The mascot range (Zakumi) is an extension of the core range, but is more orientated towards — but not limited to — infants and children.

But, although the themes have a completely different look, the style, packaging and quality of designs are all controlled by the Global Brands Group to ensure uniform quality. Within a theme there are multiple graphics — licensees were given a portfolio of about hundred graphics to choose from so that the designs have a consistent look and feel across forty products. Even the swing tags, packaging and colour will be uniform.

The Global Brands Group have also developed style guides for Point of Sale — for example, a tie stand, hat stand, eyewear stand etc. that can be ordered from the specific licensees. There are pallets for specific products and also stands combining several product categories. There are full pallets, half pallets, quarter pallets, counter stands… again, enough choice to individualise your display.

Celebrate — Football is Life The core foundation range of products, marketed world-wide to all

Examples of the “Zakumi” theme.

Zakumi Playful and cuddly, the Zakumi range will appeal to all who want to remember the 2010 FIFA World Cup™ as a fun-filled event.

Learners will want to boast with Zakumi backpacks and lunch boxes, youngsters will cuddle up with Zakumi plush toys or chase after the balls. The Zakumi items should also be popular amongst dads who want to take a gift home for their children.

Rainbow Nation This theme (right) reflects the hope that by hosting the 2010 FIFA World Cup™ all South Africans will be united by one goal.

The designs embrace the spirit and colour of South Africa with iconic South African imagery, football graphics and messages celebrating the fact that the world cup is being held in South Africa.

Examples of the “Celebrate” theme.

Examples of the “Rainbow Nation” theme.

This range has so far been very popular amongst South Africans shopping at mid-upscale and premium outlets.
