Aroundtown SA upgrades to become new shirt sponsor
New sponsor:
Aroundtown SA are the new main sponsors of 1. FC Union Berlin, upgrading their partnership from the youth team to the first-team.
Aroundtown SA has been part of the Union family since 2017, with both our U19 and U17 teams wearing the logo of the company on their shirts.
Ahead of the club's first Bundesliga campaign, Aroundtown has committed to expanding its relationship with 1. FC Union Berlin.
The first-team shirts will carry the Aroundtown logo in Bundesliga and DFB Pokal action this term.
"This will be a very proud moment for those in the company," said Andrew Wallis, Deputy Managing Director of Aroundtown. "1. FC Union Berlin and Aroundtown have a lot in common. Both have one goal: to be successful in the long term and to do so sustainably."
"Aroundtown has already made itself strong for our youths and supported this important work in our club economically," said club president Dirk Zingler. "Starting our first Bundesliga season with a partner with whom we already have a trusting relationship is very important for us. The upgrade to main sponsor is a clear commitment and I am very much looking forward to the future together."
Union and Aroundtown are entering their third year of cooperation with a contract that will run for a further two years and also includes an option to extend it for a further year.
In addition to sponsoring the first-team shirt and the presence on advertising spaces in front of TV cameras, the previous commitment to sponsoring the youth department will continue with the U14 and U15 teams.
Grand City Properties will also support Union's girls' football programme.
