Krakow-based MIG, which JD said generated revenue of about £270 million ($342.90 million) in the year ended January 31, sells sports fashion footwear, apparel and accessories from global brands.

In February, JD said it would spend up to £3 billion to open as many as 1,750 stores over five years, as CEO Regis Schultz outlined his plans for the retailer to become an athletic leisurewear “powerhouse”.

“Increasing JD’s presence in the region through new store openings and further investment in our omnichannel capabilities is a key part of the strategic growth plan set out at our Capital Markets Day presentation,” Schultz said in a statement.
