The company, which is traded as NKE on the New York Stock Exchange, has acquired several footwear and apparel companies over its history, such as Cole Haan, Bauer Hockey, Converse, Hurley International, Starter, and Umbro. On top of that, the Nike swoosh is one of the most recognized logos, as well as one of the most reputable athletic sponsors in the world. Despite a recent dip in 2020, likely due to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, Nike’s revenue has increased steadily year-on-year.
