About The S Group
After spending 20 plus years in the athletic apparel industry, Gary Peck recognized that the industry was flawed in three distinctive areas: product design, product development and global supply chain. Peck then proceeded to recruit globally talented individuals who shared a common vision of what was missing.
Today, The S Group has a global team in the field of design, innovation, product commercialization, sourcing, production and quality assurance practicing these three initiatives in enhancing the success of our partner brands.
