Mango, one of Europes leading fashion groups, is making its debut as the new technical sponsor of the Barcelona Open Banc Sabadell – 70 Trofeo Conde de God tennis tournament, by dressing more than 400 members of the organisation and the tournament staff, including ball boys and girls, line judges and umpires, who will participate in the tournament and be present on the playing courts, wearing garments that stand out for the quality of their materials and finishes, as well as their exclusivity and comfort.
The uniforms of the ball boys and girls, line judges and umpires include garments such as polo-shirts, windbreakers, sweatshirts, technical trainers and caps as part of their uniform, whereas members of the organisation, such as hostesses or access personnel, will feature garments such as tailored jackets, shirts, trench coats and gilets in their attire.
Inspired by the classic clothing of tennis clubs, the Mango collection for the God staff has been produced using mainly technical and functional fabrics such as Coolmax, Solotex, viscose and materials with thermo-regulating and breathable properties such as wool and cotton. What is more, the garments have finishes that are quick-drying and resistant to water, wind and odours.
Key garments in the collection include the iconic Ikaria trench coat and the Bologna pinstripe trousers, produced using Italian fabrics. Other key garments include the Flor and Murphy pinstripe suits, made of fabrics sourced from Barcelona.
Mangos technical sponsorship also coincides with the launch of a new capsule collection of products inspired by tennis, and the design of the first-line merchandising of the tournament. Specifically, the company based in Palau-solit i Plegamans (Barcelona) has designed a capsule collection called Mango Tennis Club, with polo shirts, skirts and shorts with retro details inspired by tennis, in addition to tennis shoes, which it has put on sale in selected stores and on its website.
In parallel, Mango has developed the first-line merchandising of the Barcelona Open Banc Sabadell. Alongside RCTB-1899 (the tournament owner) and Tennium (the tournament organiser), the company has designed and produced a collection of fashion garments and accessories for the sports event, including t-shirts, sweaters, caps, socks and wristbands, which it has put on sale in the official store of the trophy.

The new Shop Downtown app presents a unique opportunity for non-profits. Here’s how it works: shopdowntown.org offers nonprofits a way to fund their own projects by selling ad space on the App to downtown businesses and sharing in the annual revenue created. A non-profit that signs-up fifty local businesses stands to make up to $10,000 per year for their cause. “We see the affiliation with local non-profits as a community-minded way to grow our footprint in cities and towns across the country,” said Wells.

The backstory – evolution of the app: In 2013, Wells’ wife Heather opened a yarn shop in downtown Medford, Oregon. To help support the shop and other neighboring downtown businesses, the Wells started shopdowntown.org to offer shoppers a tangible discount for patronizing local businesses. First focused on Medford, Daniel Wells quickly began creating a database of downtown business directories nationwide. Wells expanded the footprint of the domain to create a directory of shops, restaurants and hotels for every City in the United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and the UK. At the same time, Eric Reimer and his partner Sean Nielsen were building a company to help small businesses, downtown communities and non-profits create their very own custom Mobile Applications. While doing their research, Reimer and Neilson encountered shopdowntown.org, which appeared at the top of most Google searches for downtown businesses, and immediately contacted Wells. In short order, they were collaborating and the new shopdowntown.org mobile app is the result.SAF makes SET Market for Alternative Investment (MAI) debut, embarks on a growth plan to accentuate leadership in special grade steel business
