At our recent meeting, we discussed a potential partnership with Lululemon that would introduce
a new clothing line. The thinking was that this partnership would be a good addition to our
branding since Lululemon is currently a very liked athletic clothing brand. Though this is true,
Lululemon’s poor ethics could negatively influence Nike’s image in the long run. Their poor
ethics can be exhibited through the following reasons.
Lululemon is not fit to collaborate with Nike. Our ethics do not align in any area whatsoever. If
we decide to associate ourselves with such a company, we may be seen as a brand that condones
these types of ethics, which could hurt our image. Let me know what you think about moving
forward with this potential partnership. Our team will need to decide in a couple of weeks so we
can give Lululemon a clear answer.
