Nike CEO says focus on its own website and stores went too far as it ...
Quick Glance: Nike CEO Acknowledges Shift from Direct Sales Focus
  • Nike CEO John Donahoe acknowledged that the company deviated too far from wholesale partners like Macy's and DSW in its pursuit of primarily selling products through its own stores and website.

  • Over recent years, Nike has actively worked on restructuring its business model. Initially focused on selling sneakers and clothing in department stores and specialty shops, the brand now generates the majority of its revenue through direct-to-consumer sales.

  • This transition enabled Nike to significantly increase revenue and enhance customer insights through data analysis. Donahoe stated that Nike has tripled its mobile and digital business in the past four years.

  • Some analysts view Nike's avoidance of wholesale partners as a misstep that hindered the company's progress in innovation and product development.
