Reebok

From open-encyclopedia.com - the free encyclopedia.

Reebok International Limited (NYSE: RBK) is a Fortune 500 company named for a type of African gazelle. It was founded in Great Britain and is now based in Canton, Massachusetts, in the United States. It originally produced running shoes but has since diversified and now produces a wide range of sports shoes and clothes.

In the past it has had an association with sweatshops, but today it is firmly committed to human rights. In April 2004, Reebok's footwear division became the first company to be accredited by the Fair Labor Association [1].
