Brandboxx Leusden

For more than fifteen years Brandboxx Leusden has been the purchase and information center for the sports industry.

Background

Brandboxx Leusden is one of the trade marts TCN owns and manages in Europe. Today, it provides a national forum for professionals in the Dutch sports industry. The center accommodates over 100 manufacturers, with over 400 brands, in sports clothing, shoes, hardware and accessories. It is only open to retailers and usually on an appointment-only basis. The sports fashion industry has several seasons a year, resulting in regular visits by the target group. Brandboxx Leusden is the biggest and most important purchase center for the sports industry.

During so-called market days, almost every Monday and Tuesday during the purchase period, all exhibitors are present, so retailers have the opportunity to look around and purchase the latest collections. Furthermore, during the main seasons, Brandboxx Leusden organize several activities and events for suppliers and retailers to allow them to present their collections regularly.

Brandboxx network, international platform for trade marts

A trade mart is a platform for transactions, meetings, distribution and information in the fields of fashion, sports and living. The Brandboxx tenants are manufacturers, distributors or agents. They share facilities such as parking and reception to reduce their operational costs, but more importantly they share knowledge and expertise. TCN has invested substantially in the development and management of the so called Brandboxx network. The network works on the principle of synergy: owners and managers have easy access to our knowledge, expertise, data and contacts in the trade mart industry. Tenants are offered an international full service solution for their wholesale activities.

The Brandboxx network currently exists of:

  • Brandboxx Salzburg (Austria)
  • Fashion Park Wien (Austria)
  • Fashion House Düsseldorf (Germany)
  • Brandboxx Hannover (Germany)
  • Brandboxx Almere (The Netherlands)
  • Brandboxx Leusden (The Netherlands)
  • Home Trade Center (The Netherlands)
  • Barcelona Moda Centre (Spain)

Management

Brandboxx Leusden has its own management organization for daily management. The fact that trading activities are clustered has clear advantages for tenants with respect to both business and management. Concentrating multiple manufacturers in a single location allows retailers to view the total array of available products in an efficient, professional and pleasant manner. Manufacturers benefit from various economies of scale. They share costs for services such as reception, cleaning, technical support and security and benefit from a combined budget for marketing, events and advertising.
