Revelyst, a global leader in high-performance sporting gear, is excited to announce the expansion of their dealer direct and direct-to-consumer (DTC) model for the Bell brand in the United Kingdom. This decision marks a significant evolution of a multichannel approach with this renowned brand. Bell Helmets will engage directly with UK retailers and consumers aiming to be the partner of choice. This move enabled the growth of both the selling and customer experience teams based in-country.
From January 2025, Revelyst will directly oversee the sale and distribution of Bell powersports products within the UK. This move is driven by Revelyst’s commitment to enhancing the customer experience, strengthening brand presence and fostering deeper connections with UK retailers and consumers.
A Customer-Centric Approach
By adopting the distribution model, Revelyst aims to provide UK consumers with:
- A Seamless Shopping Experience: Enhanced access to the full range of Bell products through select retail partnerships and dedicated online platforms.
- Exclusive Product Launches: Earlier access to new releases and exclusive collections.
- Enhanced Customer Support: Direct channels for support, education, and engagement, ensuring customers have the information they need to select the best products for their needs.
- Direct stock access to a UK based Service Center: Since August 2024 Revelyst operates and serves the UK market from a 5.000 sqm logistic center, managed by a 3PL worldwide leader in logistics. This supports a high level of service and quick replenishment all Revelyst UK partners can expect in the future.
Revelyst’s Vision for the UK Market
“Switching to a customer centric model is a transformative step in our mission to bring the world-class design and innovation of Bell closer to our UK audience,” said Jeff McGuane, Revelyst’s Adventure Sports President. “We are grateful for our collaboration with our partners over the years, and this evolution reflects our vision to deliver a more tailored and engaging experience for our customers.”
The transition is aligned with broader global trends in consumer behavior, where direct connections between brands and customers are increasingly valued. Revelyst is dedicated to ensuring a smooth transition, working closely with existing dealers to minimize any disruptions and guarantee continued access to Bell products during the changeover.
Looking Ahead
UK retailers and customers can expect exciting developments in the coming months, including the launch of refreshed e-commerce platform for Bell, alongside expanded community initiatives and events designed to celebrate and support the UK powersports community.
