All about Fans BRANDS ®

Meet one of the world's largest Formula 1 online stores, and the team behind it!

Our motto: “Let’s bring the world of Formula 1 together!”

Formula 1 and Fans BRANDS ® were created for fans and thanks to them we have reached where we are today. YOU are also part of the community that we can thank for making Fans BRANDS ® one of the leading online F1 stores globally.

That’s why our fans are at the forefront, and we develop every service to their advantage, that is, to Yours. Here, not only do we dress you from head to toe in the latest Formula 1 trends, but if you’re open-minded, then you can become a member of a real F1 community.

Our history – important moments – goals

2011 - Pit Box Kft.

The story of Fans BRANDS ® begins in 2011, one of the golden periods of Formula 1, when everyone was gripped by F1 fever. That is how Pit Box Kft was born. We showed up at the Monaco Grand Prix, and then took turns in taking the nearby locations. Towards the end of the year we started thinking about creating an online store.
2012 – Duna Pláza – F1BOX – forma1-box.hu

F1BOX began its mission to conquer fans both online and offline. The development didn't stop there though, as we soon needed a bigger warehouse...
2017 - Vác - Formula1 BRANDS

We moved to Vác, where we managed to create a real Formula 1 empire. And why did we decide to change the name F1BOX? We were looking at the international market, because at the moment an online shop can deliver anywhere in the world and we wanted people to know immediately what we do. That is how the name Formula 1 Brands was born. But that wasn’t the real one either, so another change soon followed…
2019 – a new era – Fans BRANDS ®

We did it! A new online store, a new name and new goals. We launched our international store, Facebook and Instagram pages, VIP member program, Online Wallet and much more. From here on, there will be no changes, only developments. Developments, because we want all Formula 1 fans to get what they want.
2021 – Showroom Closure

We have modernized our warehouse management, which has led to the outsourcing of warehouse logistics to a professional external company, which can accommodate much more products, so we have also improved our storage capacity. At the same time, our showroom has been disbanded and we have added new services to the online store so that you can place orders even more easily.
2022 – Our office moved to a new location

Our new address, where we also receive returned parcels: 2600 Vác, Rádi út 1-3. The team is growing, the office is growing, the product range is growing. More and more products are being added to the online store, which are of course available in our warehouse in Hungary and can be delivered immediately.
Our goal

What could be the goal of a Formula 1 company if not to win the hearts of F1 fans around the world? We will be the biggest store and our brand will be with NASA, Apple and Amazon. This is our vision and our only direction. The question is: are you with us?

BRANDS ® Fans Team

All well and good, but who are the people in the background? Sometimes the team changes, but mostly it just grows. We work every day with maximum commitment, to be able to offer the best. With us, the work doesn't stop even after 4:00 pm, nor on weekends. Our life revolves around Formula 1...

Fans' opinions

We never hide: you can rate us anywhere, anytime. More! If we have the opportunity, then we ask everyone to rate us and, if you have found any problems, let us know. Because we can't change anything and we can't grow if we don't listen to criticism ;-)

We didn't make up the ratings below, you can find them all at the official source. And many more ;-) So many people can't be wrong...

You too can write about us or read other opinions in the following channels:

Free delivery

On the territory of Hungary, we deliver parcels for free to all F1 fans. Of course, there may be some exceptions (1 HUF calendar, etc.), but still, it's not bad at all ;-)

180-day return

If for any reason you do not like the product you ordered, or you chose the wrong size, then you can return the product to us within six months, and then there will be no problems.

A gift with every order

We update the gifts offered annually and offer a gift with every order. Sometimes you can get even the greatest gifts. Follow the newsletter... ;-)

Promotional games

Occasionally, we also organize promotional games, where we give away tickets to the Hungaroring, 50-100,000 forints and other interesting things. If you don't want to miss out, sign up for our newsletter!

Manufacturer's warranty

For Formula 1 products, it is important to specify that the warranty is provided directly by the manufacturer. Here, quality is no joke, and I know this very well.

Online Wallet Acceptance

We were among the first correct online stores in Hungary, which is very beneficial for our customers, because they have the opportunity to save a lot of money on every order! If you don't have an online wallet yet, then register at this link and we will give you 5,000 forints!

VIP Membership

At Fans BRANDS ®, we take loyalty seriously: our loyal customers have the opportunity to become VIP members, which gives them an additional 10% discount on almost all products.

Newsletter and communications on the competitions

The best offers are announced exclusively in the newsletter. It's not a joke! Here you will be able to view the best gifts. And last but not least, you will not miss the Formula 1 races either, because we send you the communications.

Telephone orders

If you still have doubts, then call us on the phone and we will help you place your order (in Hungarian, English and Romanian)! You will need an email though, because that is where you will receive communications...

Delivery anywhere in the world

If you happen to be on the other side of the world, we are not worried: You will be the one surprised when the courier knocks on your door the next day with the products you ordered ;-)

10,000 Formula 1 products in our warehouse

If I had to describe what you can find in our store and on our website in one word, it would be EVERYTHING FORMULA 1! In a little more detail, I would say that we serve all Formula 1 fans with a range of thousands and thousands of products! We get the products directly from the manufacturer's laboratory in London. All products are original and under warranty. We also follow the changes in Formula 1, and if a new team or driver arrives, or if someone changes teams, then the products intended for fans come to us first.

We are waiting for you on different channels if you are interested

UK telephone number: +44 (20) 4525 6774
US Telephone Number: +1 (213) 454 0957

We can help you with size selection, order placement, warranty issues. We are waiting for calls from Formula 1 fans between 9:00 and 16:00 (UTC+2).

If you do not need an urgent answer, or if we cannot answer the phone for any reason, for example weekends, then write us an email and we will answer you within 1 working day. Sometimes letters from citromail and freemail platforms go to Spam, so use GMAIL please!

You can also send us messages on Facebook. We also reply to you on this platform because it is more convenient for some. We strive to be present in all sectors, and we welcome questions from the Formula 1 community with open arms, regardless of the sector ;-)

In 2022, we introduced a new service, WhatsApp, with which you can easily contact us from your mobile phone or computer. We respond almost immediately during business hours.

Partner

Over the years we have tested many foreign agencies and companies. Unfortunately, we do not settle for only the best. Fortunately, there are those who help us achieve our goals. Of course, this does not mean that if the quality is lacking, we will not find other partners, so we would like to take this opportunity to say goodbye to them: we thank you and hope to continue to cooperate successfully!

Fans BRANDS ® is one of the best clients of NETMIX VIP. When it comes to creating a website or online marketing, then we use their services exclusively, because they place great importance on in-depth knowledge of our thinking and goals.

In Hungary, our parcels are delivered by GLS. GLS is the largest and fastest. Of course, it is more expensive than the others, but we believe that all Formula 1 fans deserve to receive their orders the next day.

UPS is the big brother of GLS: it agrees to deliver the next day anywhere in the world. And we expect nothing but exclusive services for such exclusive products.

Pest County Internet and Telephone Service Provider. It is also important to clarify this fact, because without a secure connection, communication would not be so stable, which cannot be allowed.
