SPORTSPARTNERS GMBH & CO.KG

What SPORTSPARTNERS GMBH & CO.KG does

SportsPartners GmbH & Co. KG is a privately held German limited partnership (Kommanditgesellschaft) headquartered at Oberer Schrannenplatz 9, 88131 Lindau (Bodensee), Germany, and registered with the Kempten commercial register (HRA 9682). Founded in 2013, the company operates as the authorized German and broader European distributor for Canadian-manufactured Springfree Trampoline products. Its statutory managing partner is Christian Vogel GmbH, with Christian Vogel serving as Managing Director (Geschäftsführer). The company carries VAT ID DE261958464 and WEEE registrations in Germany (DE12736212) and France (FR331633_05BWLG).

The core product portfolio consists of seven trampoline models — the R54 Compact Round, R79 Medium Round, O77 Medium Oval, O92 Large Oval, S113 Large Square, R132 Jumbo Round, and O200 Jumbo Oval — alongside seven accessories including the FlexrHoop basketball hoop, FlexrStep entry step, Shifting Wheels, Ground Anchor, weather Cover, Sun Shade, and Ball. The underlying Springfree technology employs a springless design with a flexible enclosure net and a hidden frame positioned below the jumping mat, which the company states eliminates 90% of product-related injuries associated with traditional metal-spring trampolines. Third-party validation includes a Grade A result in the Stiftung Warentest trampoline test of 4/2019 (defeating all 10 competitors), the Spiel gut Auszeichnung of January 2018 (the first trampoline to receive this designation), and a Red Dot Design Award — Best of the Best in 2014 for the Medium Oval model.

Revenue is generated through direct-to-consumer e-commerce sales of trampolines and accessories via the company's own online shop (springfreetrampoline.de), supplemented by an offline retailer network. The website operates in four languages (German, English, Dutch, Danish) and ships across Western, Northern, Southern and parts of Eastern Europe (with islands excluded from standard shipping). Checkout supports PayPal, credit card, iDEAL (Netherlands), Bancontact (Belgium), and Sofort Banking. Pricing is structured as one-time perpetual purchase, with no subscription or recurring component, and prices are not publicly disclosed on the website. The primary customer segment is families with children seeking backyard recreation; a notable B2B reference is the partnership with DAV (German Alpine Club) climbing centers in Munich, where Springfree trampolines are installed in the Thalkirchen and Freimann halls for warm-up and recovery.

Others

• ManoMano: European online marketplace specialized in home, garden, and DIY. ManoMano is a key distribution channel where competing trampoline brands (and potentially Springfree) reach European consumers, representing both an opportunity and a channel disintermediation risk.

Broad incumbents

• Kettler: Heritage German sports and outdoor equipment brand with a broad portfolio including trampolines, table tennis, and fitness. Kettler competes in the same end-customer use cases but across a much wider product range.
• Decathlon: Global sporting goods retailer with private-label trampoline offerings at sharp price points. Decathlon is the dominant cross-category incumbent that pressures premium trampoline ASPs across Europe.

Direct peers

• Wickey: German-based outdoor play specialist selling climbing frames, swings, and trampolines direct-to-consumer across Europe. Operates with a similar DTC + European multi-country shipping model to SportsPartners.
• Hudora: German manufacturer/distributor of outdoor sports and play equipment including trampolines. Hudora is a direct competitor in the German backyard market and also distributes via sporting goods retailers across Europe.
• BERG Toys: Dutch premium outdoor play brand (trampolines, go-karts, swings) with strong European retail distribution. BERG competes in the same backyard active-play category as Springfree with comparable safety-led positioning.
• Plum Play: UK-based outdoor play equipment brand with a trampoline and playset range. Plum targets the same European family-with-children segment and competes in mid/premium backyard categories.
• Etan Trampolines: Dutch trampoline manufacturer and distributor offering a broad residential and indoor trampoline lineup. Etan is one of the most established European trampoline specialists and directly competes for the same backyard consumer.
• Salta Trampolines: Dutch-based trampoline brand selling a comparable residential trampoline range across Europe. Salta competes head-to-head with Springfree in the same safety-focused mid- to premium-tier backyard segment, often at lower price points.

Emerging players

• Springfree Trampoline (Canada / global): The Canadian parent brand manufacturer whose products SportsPartners distributes. Same product, same brand IP, but owned by the upstream supplier — the most strategically important counterparty and potential competitive threat.
