Furygan proud to partner with Bull-it
New partnership will see Bull-it warehouse stock Furygan product direct from the factory.
French motorcycle protection specialist Furygan is pleased to announce a new collaboration and partnership with Bull-it — the high-end British clothing brand owned by Hampshire-based Covec. This relationship will see Furygan ship stock directly from the factory to Bull-it’s UK warehouse, where there will also be a dedicated Furygan showroom to help dealers to fully explore the extensive clothing range.
Customers will also be able to benefit from this partnership, as it will result in improved product choice, simpler logistics and reduced delivery dates – ensuring that Furygan remains competitive and prominent in the motorcycle protection and clothing market in the UK.
Furygan’s UK country director, Lee Collins, will continue to manage his current key dealers in addition to being the key contact for Bull-it. This will maximise opportunities for both parties — the power of Bull-it combined with Furygan’s years of knowledge creating the ideal partnership.
The partnership will be active from the start of October, with the Furygan showroom in place early next year, and a brand-new website available for the UK consumers.
Lee Collins – Furygan UK Country Director
“We’ve seen in 2022 that Furygan’s business growth in the UK has been much faster than expected – which is great! With this in mind, and to ensure that we keep to our aims of continuously improving both our customer experience and coverage across the country, I’m very pleased that we have been able to broker a partnership with the Covec owned Bull-it. I’m looking forward to working closely with the Bull-it team because I’m sure that it will be a fruitful partnership, and that with the combined resources of the two companies we can further boost the brands development across the UK and make Furygan one of the top-three motorcycle clothing brands in the country.”
Elliot Bloxsome – Covec Sales Manager
“Furygan is a brand that we’ve seen perform well in the UK over the last season and historically also. Now working closely with the fantastic team behind Furygan and combining our resources we’re excited to present the opportunity to allow the brand to be a key focus in the industry, which we know it’s capable of. Their values are close to our own with an emphasis on quality and performance, making it the perfect offering alongside Bull-it for our phenomenal network of dealers and I’m looking forward to where this partnership will lead.”
About Furygan
Founded in 1969 by Jacques Segura, the history of Furygan has been forged into passion for excellence and commitment. Known as very demanding, quality driven, and with a strong innovative thinking mind, the founder of Furygan quickly extended his expertise from gloves to all kinds of garments, providing new solutions for new needs. Mr Jacques was soon involved with racers from all over the world, and quickly established his company as a leader in the motorcycling garment industry.
Instantly recognised as a sharp leather specialist, involved in high-level racing even in the early stages of its life, Furygan has grown as an important brand while still remaining a small French family business owned and directed by David Segura for 15 years. This structure has always been Furygan’s strength and it has enabled the company to successfully embrace and develop the production of new textile materials, as well as becoming a leader in safety standards. Furygan released the first entirely CE-approved range, thanks to its internal research and development department — Motion Lab. Above all, the company has kept its genuine know-how without losing its roots.
