Happy Lunar New Year to all celebrating! 🧧🍊🎆
Lunar New Year has always felt special, and it often feels as if the new calendar year hasn't quite started until the festivities are over. Taking on running a company has meant experiencing it a completely different way, be it ordering oranges in bulk for our retailers (and figuring out which ones to order - 红美人, anyone?), or determining the most suitable greetings to send our partners in China and Taiwan using my now-rusty Mandarin.
This year marks the Year of the Snake, with the snake being a symbol of change, adaptability, and most importantly, of renewal. It feels especially timely as we all enter a year where uncertainty only seems to be mounting, and change seems to be around every corner. It is a challenging time to be running an SME - I am now all too acquainted with the cost of business, and constantly concerned with building the company's resilience to tide through the impact of various geopolitical and economic forces.
We are cautiously optimistic, though, and grateful to be in that position. It is clear that the way forward is foresight and long-term focus, and the courage to find and capture the opportunities that lie ahead. We have exciting plans lined up as we explore how we can be a business for good in the sports and fitness industries, with a clear set of values at our core, while maintaining our profitability and growth trajectory. I am immensely grateful to have a team that has been on board with my approach of treating the way forward as a blank canvas, and has embraced the change and shedding of older legacies.
Here's wishing everyone a promising and transformative Year of the Snake ahead! May you be armed with courage and fortitude to weather and embrace the changes that lie ahead for the better 🐍🧧🍊✨
