Reebok is considering ending its 116-year connection with Bolton and relocating to parent group adidas’ Stockport offices. If the move goes ahead, some of the company’s 160 staff will be made redundant, while others face relocation.
Reebok currently leases 42,000 sq ft of office space at Bolton Wanderers’ Reebok Stadium.
According to ‘The Bolton News’, a spokesman for adidas said: “It is a proposal at this stage, but it is our intention to relocate the offices based at the Reebok Stadium to adidas offices in Stockport, with some workers being offered a transfer to the global HQ in Canton, near Boston, Massachusetts.
“The idea is to get the staff working together at the same locations, but keep the separate brands.”
