Premier Soccer League new-boys Scottland FC continue to attract more sponsorship after inking a US$1 million deal with IMC Communications this Friday.
Just a day after sealing the biggest sponsorship in Zimbabwean football, a five-year deal with energy giants Sakunda Holdings, the Mabvuku-based side are showing they are an attractive brand after unveiling another sponsorship with IMC Communications.
The sponsorship will be used for both football operations and construction of the club’s home ground in Mabvuku.
Representing IMC Communications, Ecobank Senior Executive, Mike Dengwane emphasised their commitment.
He said, “We saw them as an attractive prospect, this sponsorship is for this year, but we are already working on modalities for future cooperation.”
The club is looking beyond the football pitch.
“Success on the pitch requires strong partnerships outside and we are doing just that, but we are not just looking at success on the field but also impacting the youths in Mabvuku community,” said the club’s chairperson, Tonderai Sakupwanya.
IMC Communications becomes an associate sponsor for Scottland FC, with Sakunda Holdings being the principal sponsor.
