History

Decathlon has spent the last 40 years innovating with the aim of making sport accessible to all. The company’s founders, Benoît, Didier, Hervé, Nicolas, Stanislas and Stéphane, are passionate, bursting with energy and common sense, and driven by Michel Leclercq’s vision. They started with a store in Lille, France in 1976, It started to expand abroad a decade later, to Germany in 1986, Spain in 1992, Italy in 1998, Portugal, the United Kingdom in 1999, China in 2003, India in 2009, Southeast Asia in 2012 and Malaysia in 2016. There are more than 1100 stores in 38 countries. The company employs more than 78,000 staff from 80 different nationalities. Decathlon has entered Malaysia with its first retail outlet at the Courts Megastore in Sri Damansara and is open on May 26, 2016.

The company first started and subsequently expanded worldwide, growing from 7 to 70,000 employees. At the beginning of 1976, Stanislas Ernoult returned from a round-the-world trip. He had heard from his sporty friends about Michel Leclercq’s project and decided to apply. “I had done three years of business studies, but meeting Michel was when it all clicked into place. From the outset he gave us an enormous amount of autonomy and required us to be pragmatic, both constantly and in the future.” The challenges started to pile up such like selecting products, managing supplier relations, drawing up budgets, and not a simple task, choosing a company name. Pentathlon, Triathlon, Décathlon, Marathon, Sportland and Sportmarché were all thrown into the ring. There was a veritable string of names.
