Taishan Sports, one of the Chinese sports equipment suppliers for the recent Paris Olympics, has continued its winning streak. Following the successful completion of the Games, for which the company provided tens of thousands of pieces of equipment for wrestling, judo, cycling, and other sports, Taishan Sports has secured its first post-Olympic deal.

On Aug 12, a delegation from the Czech Republic visited Taishan Sports' headquarters in Dezhou, East China's Shandong province, for a business visit and to discuss potential collaborations.

Among the visitors was retired gymnast Matvei Petrov, now working for a Czech sports equipment marketing company. Petrov and his colleagues experienced first-hand the quality of Taishan Sports' products, including the pommel horse.
