Did you know Puma & Adidas were founded by 2 brothers


Dec 19, 2020, 7:07 AM

In 1924, Rudolf and his brother Adolf "Adi" Dassler had jointly formed the company Gebrüder Dassler Schuhfabrik (Dassler Brothers Shoe Factory). The relationship between the two brothers deteriorated until the two agreed to split in 1948, forming two separate entities, Adidas and Puma.

Adidas and Puma, much better names than Dassler Brothers Shoe Factory.

I actually did know that...one lesson to be learned

Never go into business with German brothers.

Aldi and Lidl (the low cost German grocery stores) were created by brothers too. Apparently they couldn't agree whether or not to sell tobacco so one brother jumped ship.

Another lesson. Don’t name your son Adolf.

Yes I knew. My parent company of Schaeffler (founded by two brothers which did not split) is located in the same town as Adidas and Puma headquarters. Which is Herzogenaurach, Germany in Bavaria. Many years ago when I traveled to Herzo I would go to the outlet store and get clothes and shoes at great prices.
