The co-founder of sportwear brand Castore has hailed the exposure from Matt Fitzpatrick's US Open win as "priceless" that will help "supercharge" the brand's expansion across the Atlantic.
In an interview with the Manchester Evening News, Tom Beahon revealed how England's new golf superstar can help the brand crack America. He also revealed the Manchester-headquartered company could welcome new outside investment in the next six months and said he and his brother Phil, who he set up the business with, are keeping an open mind over whether to go public.
Mr Beahon also lifted the lid on how 2022 has been for Castore so far, its main challenges and upping its job creation expectations from 150 to 200 by the end of the year. Matt Fitzpatrick's famous win at golf's US Open comes only a few months after Castore signed a partnership deal with the two-time Ryder Cup player.
