Decathlon
Opens Belfast Store
The well publicized opening of
the Sports store Decathlon has taken place. The
new store opened its doors on the 17th June 2010
and had laced the car park with some of its
equipment, including a range of tents and sports
equipment such as basket ball nets.
Considering the publicity surrounding
its opening, the crowds were modest and as the
first Northern Ireland customers poured through
the doors, the staff of the new outlet applauded
them, before getting to work. At the opening
were the TV/production cameras and even the
manager of near by neighbours Ikea popped by and
attempted to improve his golf swing.
The store boasts that its sells
the gear for 70 sports, whilst impressive, if
you're of a more lazy approach to living, the
walk around all this gear, will exhaust you.
Still, for Northern Ireland its a new and
exciting approach to sports. One reservation,
amidst all of this good news is that retailers
already suffering and who stood by Northern
Ireland during its darker years, when big
business would not come, will now suffer in this
new era.
