Sport activities
As Shimano’s philosophy is ‘to promote health and happiness through the enjoyment of nature and the world around us’ Shimano has a Sports Committee who organize events in which colleagues can participate. As many of our employees have an enthusiasm in different kinds of sports, we organize different sportive events for all levels. We emphasize on events with our products in both angling and cycling. We participated as a team in the Amstel Gold Race, Marathon of Eindhoven and went fishing in the Biesbosch in recent years.
Furthermore, we believe in activities for all and therefore, organize clinics for all levels in mountain biking, road racing and servicing.
