MANILA, Philippines — Filipino NBA junkies need not worry about their fan gear any more.

The National Basketball Association along with International Athletic Trading Company Inc. formally announced the launch of NBAStore.com.ph.

The online hub touts an array of authentic league merchandise—covering all 30 NBA teams.

The shop, which went on a soft launch last week, features jerseys, footwear, headwear, accessories and collectibles from the league’s official outfitter. It also carries products from the big-name sporting brands.

“The launch of NBAStore.com.ph strengthens our efforts to extend our reach further across the Philippine archipelago,” said IATC President and CEO Melvin Lloyd Lim.  “We are committed to bringing the NBA closer to the fans by outfitting them with the latest authentic NBA merchandise.”

“With the combined presence of our four brick and mortar NBA Stores in the country and NBAStore.com.ph, we now can provide authentic NBA merchandise to our fans in the Philippines wherever they are,” said NBA Philippines Managing Director Carlo Singson.  

“[It] gives us an exciting new platform to engage our fans and provides them with another touchpoint to our players and teams,” he added.

The online store will offer payment methods through credit card, online banking, over-the-counter bank deposits and non-bank partner outlets, along with a cash-on-delivery option.
