By 2020, the network of sports shops is to double to 40 points of sale. Cristian Córdova from the capital of Santiago has been in local sporting goods retail since 2011.

Through the licensing deal for Chile, IIC has entered the last subcontinent on which the red-blue banner has been present so far. The group has been operational in Latin America, however, through The Athlete’s Foot, its format of smaller sports and lifestyle shops. For the Intersport core banner, Chile is now the 45th market in which IIC operates.
