THE PAST
In the second half of 2013, together with our Decathlon colleagues, the idea of a productive structure with large dimensions was born in Albania. It specializes in the production of elastic textiles for the world of sports and based on the most advanced technology in the field of clothing processing. The verification of the general political, economic conditions and the availability of the workforce was carried out through frequent visits to various potential areas. In a short time the feasibility of the project was analyzed and the location of the most suitable building to set up the new production unit dedicated to the joint project was found. The support of our partners made it possible in a short time to solve the necessary formalities to open DBS Group in Tirana, in a place that is easily found, logistically suitable and able to provide the necessary workforce to give life project. Initially the business came to life in an area of 1000 square meters.
THE PRESENT
DBS GROUP is proud to collaborate with some of the world’s leading sports brands, including the global giant Decathlon. Today, the company employs over 800 people, a number that continues to grow. Our production facilities cover more than 17,600 square meters of covered space, within a total area of 23,000 square meters, with weekly exports to major international clients.
Our long-standing commitment to our customers has enabled us to work with prestigious brands that consider DBS GROUP the ideal partner not only for production, but also for the crucial stages of product development. We are a benchmark in the Albanian textile and apparel industry, representing a genuine success story.
For us, transformation means industrial efficiency, product and process quality, continuous professional development, and strong corporate social responsibility.
Our main factory, located in the western suburbs of Tirana, has been operating since 2014. Within its 23,000 square meters, of which 17,600 are covered, more than seven industrial processes are integrated, making DBS GROUP a fully consolidated, closed-cycle production facility capable of delivering complete finished products.
Our commitment to producing items entirely within DBS reflects our pursuit of excellence and our expertise in managing complex manufacturing processes. The scale of our operations and the size of our workforce require strict adherence to clear, transparent, and ethical standards.

We aim to develop a transparent and inclusive cooperation that allows us to develop investments in the medium and long term. The focus is on a real exchange of information related to performance indicators and economic models. The company aims to significantly increase production capacity, to make significant investments in the field of machinery and production plants, to realize more complicated products and to present in the European market its own brand of sportswear.
