BALTIMORE, Nov. 23, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Slinger® (OTCQB: SLBG), a leading connected sports technology company, today announced its latest distribution agreement with Framework Sports to bring the Slinger Bag into Poland. Framework Sports has established a Polish subsidiary of its UK-based operations, led by Mark Jarvis, the Chairman of the Polish subsidiary. Slinger continues to expand its international footprint with key distribution deals, and Framework Sports has been the exclusive UK distributor for the brand since May of 2020.
“We are thrilled to be expanding on our relationship with Slinger,” said Mark Jarvis, the Chairman of Framework Sports Poland. “We have had great success with introducing the Slinger brand and Slinger Bag to the UK tennis market and look forward to applying our experiences to Poland and its growing tennis market.
