Loving the content Ben! You should invite some of the management team from the factories in Asia to come visit the UK. It would definitely be a once in a lifetime opportunity for those that have probably never left their country
This was SUCH an amazing behind the scenes video! Thank you so much for sharing! I love the stretch break that the employees at the factory do as a group - great idea to incorporate as a normal part of the work day.
Mind blowing how far this business has come ! From sewing his own logos onto stringer vests to flying to Singapore to see his global company mass produce his product
Really appreciate you taking the time to visit Bangladesh!. You seem like you genuinely care about working conditions for the workers in Bangladesh. The factories have improved a lot in the past decade. Thank you :)
Approaching retirement age myself I've spent the last few years trying to get into good enough shape to wear Gymshark. Over that time I've got to see no end of fitness influencers wearing Ben's apparel, and I've learned a lot. Seeing the owner of the company wearing his own products however inspires even greater confidence, as he seems a very genuine, modest and respectable man. Good luck to you Ben!
Seeing Ben care about all aspects of his business is such a refreshing direction from a Big business owner...Well done mate 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼. What an example to us all!
Great to see you more relaxed/Ben compared to more formal multi take videos! Great long video content. The factories have similar visions/building setup to GS.
Working hard to become build like a gymshark athlete. Also, Hanoi is so much fun to travel to! Hope you had the time to try the food and egg coffee etc. there
Having spent some time in far-east visiting a number of factory and working in a couple of different industries it’s nice to see another industry and how they work. Keep up the great work Ben.
Appreciate the look behind the scenes. I am so happy to see you and your team excited to see progress and production. So cool you went to go see the school. ❤❤❤ I’m excited to see trousers and shoes next, Team Gymshark!

Pop corn and 40 minutes with the man who changed my perspective, thank you so much for these videos Ben, I'm learning a lot. I moved to Birmingham from Italy to scale my company in UK. It's been a great journey so far, Gymshark is a huge inspiration for me, and Birmingham is a beautiful city too!
Muchas felicidades a ti y todo tu equipo se nota la pasión q le ponen a su trabajo igual a todas las personas involucradas para q tu marca tenga un terminado de calidad enhorabuena mi estimado Ben
This guy Ben is blessed I have seen fashion genius failed,but this lad Ben from out of nowhere succeeded ,like the WEWORK company was valued at £10 Billion,before it collapsed, enjoy the ride Ben
You are always sold out of most t shirts all the time. I need moooaaaarrr. The embroidered logos on the crest cotton t shirts are incredible! Any chance of embroidered logos on the arrival t-shirts? Just adds so much more quality to the product. Keep smashing it 💪🏼
I currently work on an Ipad Pro and I wouldnt recommend it in the long run for being your full time on-the-go device. Im getting a macbook to use but I will still have the Ipad, just for notes and so forth
Ben, I know you have rest day gear (which is great) but I would love to see something like Smart /Casual. It would be the amazing Gymshark fit but could be worn on say a night out, a date, even work but doesn’t shout “I’m working out”. It could have a really subtle same colour logo on a bottom tag or something. The gymshark brand is amazing but I don’t always want someone to think I’m just about to workout. In fact, a couple of the rest day oversized ones I got recently have this, a really small and subtle logo. I’ve tried really hard to just get a casual T-shirt or polo that fits the same that I can wear on a night out, but they just aren’t very good or flattering! Im sure I’m late to the party and you guys have considered it already! Would love to see it.
Start with the polos they just launched… also, while he was packing I think i saw a olive colored trouser… I’m excited to see casual wear!!! And shoes!
Loved seeing the production lines at work. Went to JLR recently and found theirs fascinating too. You looked knackered but what a trip. The breathable water proof clothing with The Happy Fish demo was class. What a guy. 🤜🤛

I'm trained down too at the moment Ben -- As you'll know the 'neat fit' of clothing matters for looking and feeling good -- A great deal of stuff at the moment is just too baggy for lean toned bodies -- OK for working out but sloppy and slobby looking --- time for us all to progress better through the 21st Century
@@GazzaNepe Understanding how to get more for what you put in, is the game.

@@cybrpvnk That is not at all how economies of scale work. These factories are pumping out products for dozens of multi national companies not just Gymshark, suggesting that Gymshark buys the factory to produce only for themselves would decrease efficiency, decrease output and increase the cost per item. Literally not a single company on the planet operates this way. Even Amazon use partners to produce their packaging, they don't own their own paper mills and factories. You obviously aren't aware that Nike use this factory and they are valued 100x higher than Gymshark. You are right it is very simple economics, yet you still failed to understand it!
The worth of a company & his stake in it doesn't mean cold hard cash available in his hand, & I feel like he's the guy to be conscious of impact so why add to it with a private plane when there are commercial flights going to the locations he needs.
how can you proudly show off this. not being funny fair play you’ve done well but you’re only where you are cos of these people slaving away all day for the amount it costs to buy a pair of gymshark socks.
Selling merch, it's cheap materials, effectively manufactured in sweatshops, with a massive carbon footprint. well done for making money mate. Hopefully the next generation wont be so money oriented and are a bit more spiritual

Peanuts
I hope those workers are being paid well.
Anything actually made in the UK?

Are you going to use that waterproof fabric in some products?
Good video, tagged the wrong RollsRoyce though (separate companies).

Gym shark should look into acquiring all those companies and vertical integrate all components of the supply chain, it would be a game changer.
