UK Gear has incorporated the customer services team and warehousing operation - previously with Saucony - at a new facility in Portsmouth.

The move will free up the company's headquarters near Rugby, Warwickshire to concentrate on global military markets and increase research and development activity.

Commenting on the brand’s far-reaching logistical restructuring, David Hinde, UK Gear’s founder, says: “Investment in an enlarged customer services facility was critical for us in our plans to meet our ambitious mid to long-term sales objectives in the UK.

“Customer services stands as a cornerstone of the brand’s programme for sustainable and systematic growth and is part of a wider overhaul, which will support the more aggressive posture taken by UK Gear in the market.”
