The Spanish industry commission padel (Ceip) decided to dissolve the working group which operated under the aegis of Afydad, an entity bringing together all Spanish manufacturers of sporting goods. Instead, they will give way to an independent association that is set to grow.

The board explains that the new association will be independent, “with its own statutes and the hope that this new entity will bring together more companies in the padel“. Currently, thirteen brands appear as partners: Agora Sport, AllForPadel (Adidas Padel), Babolat, Bullpadel, Enebe, Head, Manzasport, Mondo, NOX, PPW, Padel RedSport, Vibor-A and Padel Technologies.

The letter is signed by Jesús Ballvé (NOX), Alfredo Peñalver (Aguirre and Cia), José Luis Sicre (AllForPadel) and Ricardo Fernandez (Head). In this document, entrepreneurs open the possibility of finding bridges with Afydad: “This new association will decide if it will be associated with Afydad when it is formed“, They said.

In the same spirit, they also expressly thank the work of Marta Mercader, general secretary of Afydad, because “all the administrative and organizational management of trade missions would not have been possible without it ”.
