My favorite brand
Nike is my most favorite brand. This a brand that plays a key role in today’s sports and
athletics industry. This is brand established under a company that was established under a
partnership between Phil Knight and bill bower man back in 1962. Since then it has greatly
developed and ends up being my favorite brand. It's brand that has consistently targeted the
youth and more so the males who happen to be main customers of these brand products. It’s a
brand that has also been linked with most celebrities being loyal customers to the brand.
