Richard Moore, Director of Snap Distribution, commented: “We are very pleased to be working with BSD, they are one of the most progressive BMX brands in the UK right now. We have been looking to grow Snap and BSD seemed like the perfect fit for our company. It’s also good to be supporting the growth of a UK based brand.”
BSD makes a range of quality aftermarket BMX parts including frames, bars, seats, hubs, hub guards, sprockets, stems and forks and have an international team of sponsored riders including Kriss Kyle, Antony Lille, Mike Taylor and Tony Malouf.
Upcoming UK events BSD is involved in include the BSD Jam 2011. Sponsored by Nike 6.0 this will take place at Dumbarton’s Unit 23 Skate-park on Saturday 19th March. BSD will also be performing riding demonstrations at the first ever Scottish Bike Show taking place on the 16th and 17th April this year at the SECC in Glasgow.
UK BMX brand BSD has appointed Snap Distribution as its new distributor for the UK. The Hastings based company will represent BSD from spring 2011 and will be responsible for supplying specialist BMX and bike shops throughout the UK. Snap Distribution, who will be replacing Zeal, has been established since 2003 and have distributed freestyle, race BMX and clothing brands including Twenty Bikes and Shitluck. Grant Smith, Director of BSD, commented: “We are excited about working with Snap, they are a forward thinking company which is service driven. They are about streamlining the distribution process and have invested heavily into online B2B ordering tools, making it as easy as possible for shops to place orders. They are also rider owned, rider run and into supporting the BMX scene in the UK, which fits in with what BSD is about. The last couple of years have been exciting for BSD and we are confident that this new partnership will strengthen our position further within the UK. ”
