The people who run the club shop have issues and aren’t able to open or send stuff out from the website.

Southampton & Oldham, not sure about others.

Update on retail operations

The club was recently made aware of significant business and fulfilment challenges being experienced by our external third-party retail partner, Elite Sports Group, who manage the online and physical retail operation of a number of clubs, including ours.

Surprised that they’re in financial difficulties when they charge £6 delivery for a sock

Does this mean Hummel UK potentially going bust or is Elite Sports Group just a sub company (middle man as such)

Elite Sports Group seems to owe a reasonable amount of money due to be repaid over the year 1/4/21 to 31/3/22 - the margins are tight >2% in this kind of business so any sort of downturn will quickly have an affect.

Once again the club's owners' strategy of outsourcing everything leads to a loss of control and ultimately a loss of income

Wonder how many clubs don't outsource these days? Would guess if you don't use a company like this, or you're a big enough club to deal with the big manufacturers direct, you're back in the world of crap template kits.

So ultimately wasps going bust with about 200+ unique items on their site would not have helped

It would depend on if they were owed anything and if they had shit loads of Wasps stock sat about.

Not sure how it works, you would think if they ran the website and shop then they would take the money and then send the % to Wasps / CCFC.

The thing with us is, who owns the agreement for the club shop? The club or them?

Bad luck or more mismanagement being partnered with this crowd ? Such a shame as the kits have been fantastic and the range of stuff pretty good…If a bit expensive . Hopefully it will sort itself out in good time before Xmas.

22nd August.

If that company got loads in to sell they are probably piled up with plastic flags somewhere.
