GO Sport
 PROFILE
GO Sport allows French sports enthusiasts to go play. The company operates a chain of more than 100 GO Sport sporting goods stores, mostly in France but also in Belgium and Poland. GO Sport's stores have shifted focus to selling and renting sporting equipment (for golf, fishing, cycling, tennis, etc.) and away from apparel sales. The company markets well-known sports equipment names as well as its own brands of sporting goods under the GO Sport and Wannabee labels. French parent Rallye, which owns about 70% of the company, plans to merge GO Sport with its sports shoe retailing subsidiary Courir. Courir operates more than 130 stores in France.
