Retail
FTG runs 9 standalone stores plus 7 additional locations within department stores. These stores are primarily located in the Greater Taipei area and Northern Taiwan, with 2 stores in Taichung (Central Taiwan) and 1 in Southern Taiwan. The customer base includes outdoor, travel, ski, trail running, and sports enthusiasts. FTG stores exclusively feature brands that the company distributes, operating as a carefully curated select shop without manufacturing its own products.

This well-structured sales approach enables FTG to effectively provide Taiwanese consumers with a diverse and trusted selection of outdoor, travel, ski, and sports products through multiple accessible channels.
