Asetek - Sim Racing Products Available at Micro Center Online and Physical Stores Across the U.S.
Aalborg, Denmark - June 26, 2023 -- Asetek sim racing gear innovator and Micro Center today announced that Micro Center will sell a broad offering of Asetek SimSports® sim racing products in its physical stores across the U.S., and through its online store microcenter.com (https://www.microcenter.com/).
A variety of Asetek SimSports® wheels, wheelbases, pedals, and accessories are now available through Micro Center, including the recently announced Tony Kanaan Sim Racing products (https://www.asetek.com/press-releases/asetek-and-tony-kanaan-co-develop-sim-racing-gear/), and premium Invicta™ and high-performance high-value Forte® offerings.
"In addition to the recently unveiled Asetek SimSports® Tony Kanaan Sim Racing Bundle exclusively available through Micro Center, we are delighted to offer retail availability of Asetek SimSports® across Micro Center's 26 stores as well as from their online store," said André Sloth Eriksen, CEO and founder of Asetek. "Through this agreement, we are making it easier for sim racers in North America to purchase Asetek SimSports® gear and experience the feel of real racecar racing. These are the first exciting steps into the experimental retail strategy mentioned at the recent first quarter 2023 presentation. Competing retail with competitors only selling direct, poses a significant supply chain challenge (due to the increased margin stack) but we believe we have found a viable way with Micro Center. It is still too early to quantify the financial impact of this strategy, but we see it as an integral part of our vision of broadening the customer base and availability to end-users."
