​Tottenham move to increase presence in South Korea

Tottenham Hotspur have appointed Infiniss as their new licensing agent in South Korea, reports, www.sportspromedia.com/.

The agency will appoint licensees for Tottenham Hotspur-branded goods and accessories with a view to selling them, predominantly, on South Korea's popular TV shopping channel market.

In 2015 Spurs signed Heung-Min Son, the South Korean international and Asian Footballer of the Year, which reportedly increased the local fanbase by 30 per cent.

"We are delighted to welcome Infiniss on board as we strive to cater for the growing demand for club product in South Korea," said Gary Jacobson, brand licensing manager at Tottenham Hotspur. "The form of the team over the past season, coupled with Son's arrival, has sparked a huge amount of interest from that part of the world.

"Infiniss has a proven track-record in this market, and the early addition of SJ Trend to our growing licensing portfolio in Far East Asia is an encouraging beginning to the partnership."
