The FILA division contributed 48.8% of the overall revenue, which increased by 9.4% to 7.152 billion yuan over the same period in 2019, surpassing the Anta main brand for the first time.

Different from the usual Chinese sports brands, Anta always insists on promoting multiple brands at the same time and shaping the brand image in different directions, which not only enables Anta to follow the fashion trend more acutely, but also is the company’s business strategy to seek stability and risk aversion in the fashion market.
