Vincent BrunetFounder racket-padel.com, looks back on how it works as a site, pro-shop, but also a distributor.

Padel Magazine : Hello Vincent, tell us a bit about your activities in the padel !

Vincent Brunet : There is indeed the snowshoe site-padelbut also can give you 80m² physical store in Saleilles (near Perpignan), 90% of which is occupied by padel : rackets, bags, accessories etc. The remaining 10% is allocated to tennis, since I always keep one foot in this sport as a teacher.

 

Padel Magazine : What are the strengths of this store?

Vincent Brunet: First of all, the fact of buying in store allows to receive advice, to see the products, to touch them, and especially, as regards the palas, to test them! In the shop parking lot, there is a padel canopy that allows customers to test palas before purchasing them !
