Re: Database of Rare And Interesting NBA Player Measurements. Made this new thread because I now have a lot more measurements than just Russell/Wilt/Kareem like my old thread.
In 2015, the United States imported close to 88 billion U.S. dollars worth of apparel. Nike, which name is derived from the Greek goddess of victory, is the largest apparel company in the world and is headquartered in Beaverton, Oregon. It was founded on January 25, 1964 by Bill Bowerman and Phil Knight. Nike's revenue amounted to approximately 32.38 billion U.S. dollars in fiscal year 2016.
If we take just fashion apparel and fashion apparel retailers into consideration, there isn't just one retail company that is clearly the largest in the world. But the company considered to be the world's largest retailer of fashion apparel is not Walmart, and it's also not one the largest U.S. retail companies. It's Inditex. In terms of the total number of global retail outlets, Inditexâheadquartered in Arteixo, Galicia, Spainâis the largest retailer of fashion apparel in the world.
