Lillywhites, UK’s oldest and the world’s largest sports store is going to be opening soon in Kuwait. They will be replacing all the current Go Sport locations in Kuwait including the huge Avenues location which is currently undergoing a major facelift in preparation for the opening sometime next month. If the brand sounds familiar it could be because you’ve seen their store in London which has been at Piccadilly Circus since 1863.
Full disclosure: I’m currently involved in this project but was only able to post about it now

so no more Go Sports?
yup no more go sports
Hmmm….even in Dubai? GOSPORTS is awesome in Dubai Mall.
NO, Thats not gonna change! It belongs to a different company.
So, we will be expecting a major clearance then 🙂
They had a huge sale recently
No clearance…..the Go Sport tags will be replaced with Lilywhite ones…..
The same attitude remains from Go Sports – I’ve just been in there to buy a 200KWD heart rate monitor – person helping me tutted in my face when I was asking him relevant questions. This is AFTER telling me they dont hold it in stock, when I’d looked at it 1 hour earlier.
He made such a show of having to fetch the key, having to unlock the cabinet and get the HRM that I wanted. I spoke with the manager who was in dirty casual clothes, unshaved and un-interested.
I walked out, no sale. I’ll buy mine online and pay the import costs.
