DESIGNED BY RIDERS FOR RIDERS

Since 1985

The AGVSPORT licensing business model

In 1985 the founder of AGV Helmets, Gino Amisano entered into a licensing agreement with Michael Parrotte to create a line of motorcycle apparel with the AGV brand name. In the first years, the products were branded as “AGV” and used the same tricolor trademark as the helmets.

Some years later “sport” was added to the AGV brand name because most apparel requires a long logo for aesthetic reasons. In the early 1990’s AGV Helmets owned half of AGV Sports Group later in the decade AGV’s s interest was purchased back and in 2001 AGV Sports Group became a completely independent company with worldwide ownership of the AGVSPORT brand name.

The AGVSPORT brand is represented in different countries by independent license holders who own the exclave right to the AGVSPORT brand in their country. All of the license holders operate in a type of “co-operative” or “union” and share their ideas and work on product development, sponsorship, marketing, advertising, and other related matters. All of the license holders work in a global partnership to develop the best products and promote the AGVSPORT brand.

This team approach creates a worldwide network of people who are not only professionals in their business but passionate motorcycle enthusiasts as well. This integrated network of license holders sharing the latest information from their home market allows the AGVSPORT brand to stay on the cutting edge of high-performance motorcycle safety gear.

The AGVSPORT brand has been represented over the years in many countries including Australia, Italy, Canada, France, Brazil, Thailand, Spain, Russia, New Zealand, Argentina, United Kingdom, Chile, Mexico, Panama, Vietnam, and Korea.

AGVSPORT products have consistently won best-in-class awards from numerous motorcycle publications around the world.
