NIKE, Inc.
ნესტან ნარიმანიძე
Nike is without a doubt one of the world’s
top sports and fitness companies, and has a
legacy which dates back to 1962 when they
first arrived on the scene under the name of
Blue Ribbon Sports. Today Nike is known
for their top of the line sports apparel and
athletic shoes.
History of NIKE, Inc.

 In the year 1962, Philip H. Knight reached out to an athletic shoe company
in Japan called the Onitsuka Tiger Co., because he strongly believed in the
quality in the running shoes that were manufactured there.
 Knight set up a plan to gradually introduce some of the Onitsuka Tiger
Company’s products to the United States.
 In that same year Knight founded Blue Ribbon Sports (BRS), which pleased
his Japanese counterparts.
 In 1963 BRS finally set the plan in motion by taking delivery of the Onitsuka
Tiger Company’s athletic shoes (200 pairs), and pushed to sell them at a lot of
different track meets.
 Knight was laboring by himself until the next year in 1964, when William
Bowerman, Knight’s old track coach, matched his investment with $500 and
became his partner.
 In 1966, the two partners open up the company’s first retail outlet, after
generating $20,000 in sales the previous year.
 William Bowerman’s unique designs became a huge seller in 1967 as their
business spread from California to the East Coast, setting up distribution
headquarters in Massachusetts.
 The following year in 1968, the company becomes incorporated when they
designed the Cortez shoe, which brought about much progress with bringing
about the first running shoe to have a cushioned mid-sole from the heel to the
toe.
 In 1971 BRS expands its operations overseas, as they began to manufacture
products through financing from the Nissho Iwai Corporation, and independent
contractors.
 In the same year BRS brought to the scene a product line called Nike, which
had a Swoosh logo representing Greek mythology’s victory goddess. This was
the first recorded line of Nike’s that were sold.
 In 1972 the partnership between BRS and Onitsuka Tiger came to an end
through failure to come to an agreement over distribution, and BRS began to
push the Nike brand through the Olympic Trials in that same year.
 In 1978 Blue Ribbon Sports changed its name to Nike, Inc., and the following
year introduced the Nike Air shoe along with a new clothing line.
 In 1980 Nike goes public.
 In 1981 Nike begins to focus on promoting their products over seas
in markets all across Europe, Asia, Japan, Africa, and Latin America.
 In 1985 Nike furthered the success of the company by having
Michael Jordan to sign a contract to endorse one of it’s versions of the
Nike Air shoe and called this one the “Air Jordan.”
 In 1988 the very popular slogan “Just Do It” was introduced to the
world.
 In 1988 Cole Haan, maker of casual and dress shoes, is acquired.
 In 1990 Nike, Inc. opened up NikeTown retail outlets which began in
Portland Oregon.
 In 1994 Nike, Inc. acquires Canstar Sports Inc., the leading maker of
skates and hockey equipment in the world, later renamed Bauer Nike
Hockey Inc.
 In 1993 Sporting News dubbed Philip H. Knight the most powerful
man in sports.

NIKE, Inc.’s Recent Success
 According to the results of the fourth quarter, Nike Inc.’s profit
jumped 53%, and is expected to continue doing well as future orders
pour in. Nike, Inc.’s marketing campaign of the World Cup and the
sponsorship of 10 teams were the catalyst in forecasting a spike in
sales. For the month ending May 31, 2010 Nike, Inc. reported a profit
of $521.9 million which was greater than last year’s $341.4 million,
and a share of $1.06 a share which is more than the previous year’s 70
cents a share.
 According to Morgan Stanley “transaction data suggest Nike’s U.S.
apparel sales jumped 13.5% during the quarter.” There was reason to
believe that the jump in sales of apparel in the U.S. was because of the
events that took place during that quarter, which was the World Cup.
The World Cup sparked the demand of jerseys and other related
apparel surrounding the World Cup. There are many competitors
worldwide in the athletic apparel market and Nike controls 10%, and
35% of its share is in athletic shoes.
Critical Issues
 There has been a campaign spearheaded by college students in
universities to burden Nike by forcing them to take action surrounding
the 1,800 workers who lost their jobs in Honduras because their
factories were closed by a couple of subcontractors. The campaign led
to Nike having to pay out $1.54 million to resolve the issue with the
1,800 workers.
 A nationwide group by the name of United Students against
Sweatshops along with students in universities forced Nike to pay $2
million in severance, which was something the subcontractors
neglected to do. The $1.54 million had nothing to do with the $2
million in severance; it was for a worker relief fund. That’s a total of
$3.54 million, and that is not including the finance health coverage and
training that Nike agreed to provide the workers who lost their jobs.
NIKE, Inc. Still Kicking
Despite all of the controversy Nike had faced with college students in
several universities, it did not stop Nike from introducing the new uniforms
for 10 college football teams. Nike brings their innovative designs to the
following teams:
 Ohio State
 Alabama
 Florida
 Boise State
 Miami
 Oregon State
 Pittsburgh
 TCU
 Virginia Tech
 West Virginia
These 10 college football team uniforms are said to be 37% lighter.
Analysis
If Nike continue in their legacy of making
athletic shoes and apparel with the
innovative designs that we have all been
accustomed to seeing, along with excellent
marketing, then there shouldn’t be a
problem remaining the number one sports
and fitness company in the world.
Recommendations
&
Projections
 If I had to give any recommendations, I would tell the
people at Nike, Inc. to continue doing what they are doing
as far as coming up with new designs, quality sports
apparel and footwear, getting the right players to endorse
them, and run the same marketing campaign until it has
run its course, then switch it up.
 I predict that Nike will maintain impressive numbers in
sales, quarterly growth, and net income through these
rough economic times, and will do even better as the
economy slowly recovers.

  • 9. NIKE, Inc.’s Recent Success  According to the results of the fourth quarter, Nike Inc.’s profit jumped 53%, and is expected to continue doing well as future orders pour in. Nike, Inc.’s marketing campaign of the World Cup and the sponsorship of 10 teams were the catalyst in forecasting a spike in sales. For the month ending May 31, 2010 Nike, Inc. reported a profit of $521.9 million which was greater than last year’s $341.4 million, and a share of $1.06 a share which is more than the previous year’s 70 cents a share.  According to Morgan Stanley “transaction data suggest Nike’s U.S. apparel sales jumped 13.5% during the quarter.” There was reason to believe that the jump in sales of apparel in the U.S. was because of the events that took place during that quarter, which was the World Cup. The World Cup sparked the demand of jerseys and other related apparel surrounding the World Cup. There are many competitors worldwide in the athletic apparel market and Nike controls 10%, and 35% of its share is in athletic shoes.
  • 10. Critical Issues  There has been a campaign spearheaded by college students in universities to burden Nike by forcing them to take action surrounding the 1,800 workers who lost their jobs in Honduras because their factories were closed by a couple of subcontractors. The campaign led to Nike having to pay out $1.54 million to resolve the issue with the 1,800 workers.  A nationwide group by the name of United Students against Sweatshops along with students in universities forced Nike to pay $2 million in severance, which was something the subcontractors neglected to do. The $1.54 million had nothing to do with the $2 million in severance; it was for a worker relief fund. That’s a total of $3.54 million, and that is not including the finance health coverage and training that Nike agreed to provide the workers who lost their jobs.
  • 11. NIKE, Inc. Still Kicking Despite all of the controversy Nike had faced with college students in several universities, it did not stop Nike from introducing the new uniforms for 10 college football teams. Nike brings their innovative designs to the following teams:  Ohio State  Alabama  Florida  Boise State  Miami  Oregon State  Pittsburgh  TCU  Virginia Tech  West Virginia These 10 college football team uniforms are said to be 37% lighter.
  • 12. Analysis If Nike continue in their legacy of making athletic shoes and apparel with the innovative designs that we have all been accustomed to seeing, along with excellent marketing, then there shouldn’t be a problem remaining the number one sports and fitness company in the world.
  • 13. Recommendations & Projections  If I had to give any recommendations, I would tell the people at Nike, Inc. to continue doing what they are doing as far as coming up with new designs, quality sports apparel and footwear, getting the right players to endorse them, and run the same marketing campaign until it has run its course, then switch it up.  I predict that Nike will maintain impressive numbers in sales, quarterly growth, and net income through these rough economic times, and will do even better as the economy slowly recovers.
