Kömmerling is now into year two of a three-year sponsorship agreement with Germany Bundesliga football club Mainz 05, as main sponsor and the team has already made a strong start to the season.
After a narrow defeat to Borussia Dortmund at the beginning of the season, the club has now climbed to 9th in the Bundesliga, after recent wins against FC Augsberg and Weder Bremen. With the Kömmerling logo emblazoned on the front of the players’ shirts, it has exposed the brand to millions of viewers and thousands of fans in Europe.
Following a high placed finish in last season’s Bundesliga, Mainz were rewarded with a place in the Europa League and a recent 3-2 away win at Azerbaijan Gabala FC has seen the club move to the top of its group after two games. There’s hope that the club progresses to the knock out stages and a lucrative tie with a British club.
Kevin Warner, head of sales and marketing at Kömmerling in the UK commented: “We’re really getting behind Mainz 05 in the UK and also in other international markets, where football is prevalent as a popular sport. Our hope is that they progress to the knock out stages further exposing the Kömmerling brand and the opportunity for a match against British opposition.”
