Building up of own brand literally requires a lot of efforts and cannot be acquired overnight.

· Intensity of rivalry
The level of competition in the industry is so intense because of the main competitors like Nike, Puma, Under Armour and there are several other small competitors also sharing their position in the market share. All competitors are spending billions of dollars in the marketing, advertising, etc., Even though the top brands are limited in number, still, the competition they are giving to Adidas is very tough.
Intensity of rivalry – High
Supplier power
Adidas has multi-layered supply chains from all over the world and as it is working with more than 1000 factories in 63 countries, most of its production is outsourced. It would be a major loss to the suppliers if the suppliers try to take the risk by making supply contract with other companies because it will lead to losing up of the business tie-up with Adidas and put their business in risk.
Supplier power – High
· Buyer Power
There are some of the local competitors are also influencing the buyers to purchase their products. But Adidas has a strong built up customer loyalty base with its efficient marketing technique. Its mainly focusses on its design, brand, and quality. So, for these reasons the switching of buyers to other concerns products is very minimal in number.
