USA Gymnastics Signs FanBuzz To Exclusive E-commerce Agreement

Gymnastics - 22 May 2003
   
Gymnastics and FanBuzz, a leading provider of e-commerce solutions to sports, entertainment and media brands, launched the new USA Gymnastics on-line store on May 19 at the National Governing Body's website, www.usa-gymnastics.org.

'FanBuzz has a proven track record of success in creating brand value through ambitious and creative e-commerce solutions,' said USA Gymnastics President Bob Colarossi. 'USA Gymnastics has tremendous potential in the realm of merchandising and on-line sales, especially as we look forward to hosting the 2003 World Championships in the U.S. with the 2004 Olympic Games on the horizon.'

'The Olympic Family has been extremely important to FanBuzz, and we are excited to have USA Gymnastics join our roster of valued Olympic partners,' said FanBuzz President Roy Seinfeld. 'We look forward to a fruitful partnership, offering official and exclusive merchandise on the road to Athens and beyond.'

To further promote the launch of the new USA Gymnastics on-line store, visitors will receive a free gift with every purchase through July 19.

USA Gymnastics and FanBuzz entered into a partnership in April to develop an online store, an expanded apparel line, order processing and customer support for USA Gymnastics merchandise.

FanBuzz, under USA Gymnastics' direction, will be responsible for all facets of USAG's e-commerce operation including web site development, merchandising, customer service, order processing, garment decoration and product fulfillment.

FanBuzz is a leading provider of private labeled e-commerce solutions for leading sports, media, entertainment and retail gift brands, including the NHL, ESPN and The Museum Company. FanBuzz is a wholly-owned subsidiary of ValueVision Media (Nasdaq: VVTV), which owns and operates ShopNBC.

Based in Indianapolis, USA Gymnastics is the national governing body for the sport of gymnastics in the United States. Its mission is to encourage participation and the pursuit of excellence in the sport.
