Local group Hudson Holdings has won the coveted Nike Distributor of the Year Award for 2010 together with its Algerian partner Playmode Sarl for their performance in Algeria.

The award ceremony was held during the last Central, Eastern Europe, Africa and Middle East region sales meeting at Nike global headquarters in Beaverton, Oregon, US.

The award was the result of a very successful year where, despite global economic difficulties, the team managed to increase turnover, expand its retail network and grow the business over and above Nike’s expectations. This award follows another prestigious accolade won in 2008 when the Team was awarded the JDI Award for Entrepreneurship and Business Acumen in Algeria.

Nike officials praised the Algerian and the Maltese team for the successful growth of the business just four years after commencement of operations. This has created a benchmark in retail and wholesale management in the Algerian market as well as the rest of Africa.

Hudson Group is the official distribution manager for Nike in Libya and Algeria and is also a strategic partner of Nike in Italy with 13 Urban Jungle stores in Italy dedicated to showcasing Nike sportswear products.
