** Akram’s Reebok store opens…**
By Shahnawaz Khan
LAHORE: ** Wasim Akram’s Reebok sportswear store was opened at popular business hub MM Alam Road (Lahore) in grandeur by cricket legend-turned politician Imran Khan on Wednesday. **
A smiling Akram, dressed in red and blue and surrounded by dozens of youngsters, mingled with the crowd chatting with friends, family and business partner and brother-in-law Amir Saeed.
The whole building was illuminated with lights and huge posters of Rebook sporting Akram on the front were put on display. A number of shop officials also wearing red t-shirts and black trousers with the help of police maintained tight security. The shop also has on display a few pairs of the shoes that Akram wore in cricket matches.
Imran’s arrival at the spot brightened up the crowd’s mood and people rushed the hero in the hopes of shaking his hand. The scene was spiced up with the presence of Ramiz Raja, Inzamamul Haq, Waqar Younas, Arshad Khan, Shoaib Malik, Yousaf Youhana, Bob Woolmer, Sobindher Singh, the managing director of Reebok South Asia, and film star Resham. After the inauguration, Khan told the media, “I would like to congratulate Wasim and wish him all the success in this new venture.” A thankful Akram replied, “I am glad that people of Lahore have supported me in all my ventures, and I am sure that this new project will also be patronised.”
Singh was full of praise for his company’s role model Akram, “It was the love of Akram which compelled us to start a business outlet in Lahore. Later on, the sportswear giant will branch out to other cities. I met Akram a year ago and after a detailed negotiation I convinced him to franchise an outlet.”
Ali Abbas, an ardent fan of famous cricketer Waseem Akram, became the first customer at Akram’s Reebok shop after making purchases of Rs 3,400 just three hours after the shop opened.

Re: Akrams Reebok outlet
It will be expensive..but what is'nt in pakistan..i think people who go abroad regularly or give people money to people who go abroad to shop for them will benefit ???
A good pair of trainers costs atleast £40-£50 in the UK..If they can do a very good pair b/w Rs.3000-Rs.4000 it wouldnt be too bad...remember that an average trackie botom also costs atleast £25 in the UK.
