The company has opened 31 stores across Malaysia, Singapore and Indonesia since entering the Southeast Asia market in 2020.

We have taken a step forward to establish our new Asian headquarters in Malaysia, enabling GMG to capitalise on the burgeoning sports retail industry in Asia. We have designed an aggressive roadmap for our brands in this region, and this move will also allow us to serve our Southeast Asian customers better, closer to home,” stated Mohammad A. Baker, Deputy Chairman and CEO, GMG.

GMG’s sprawling 28,000 sqft. Asian headquarters located in The Exchange 106 Tower in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia will oversee regional operations and prove to be a catalyst for further expansion and growth. Currently, GMG employs over 1,200 people across Asia.

GMG also recently unveiled a new brand identity for RSH, which places the community at its core, redefining sport for all by being real, relevant and fun. The newly revamped RSH brand aims to help customers from all walks of life “find their rhythm” through sport. The unveiling took place at the launch of a new RSH store at Tropicana Gardens Mall in Petaling Jaya, outside of Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.
