NCAA – National Collegiate Athletic Association
The NCAA brand has been re-launched successfully in Japan this year. In 1970, the NCAA branded apparel launched as a sports brand in Japan. In 1981, the beverage company developed sports drinks and appointed Carl Lewis, American Gold medalist, for their TV footage. They created a furor of NCAA as a sporting brand in 1970’s and 1980’s. Thereafter, the NCAA brand was kept quiet in the market for the last several decades. In 2021, with an effective strategy, the NCAA brand has been relaunched and has been growing. It is predictable that the NCAA brand takes the fashion industry by storm soon.
