Davanti Tyres extends Larne FC partnership

9th April 2021

Davanti Tyres is delighted to announce the extension of our partnership with Larne FC of Northern Ireland’s Danske Bank Premiership.

One of the UK’s leading tyre specialists, Davanti will continue as Larne Football Cub’s sleeve sponsors until the end of the 2022/23 season having become the club’s official tyre partners in the autumn of 2020, kickstarting an exciting collaboration.

Since then, Larne have proudly displayed the Davanti logo on each of their three shirts this season, as well as various signage around Inver Park and Inver Stream, Larne’s matchday live coverage of all home matches.

Supporters have also had the opportunity to enjoy this partnership, with various social media competitions providing the chance to win signed Larne shirts and tyres.

Chairman Gareth Clements was delighted to announce the extension of the partnership, building on solid foundations laid over the past year.

He said: “When we announced our commercial partnership with Davanti in August I said that we aspired for longevity in all of our partnerships, and that I saw it as the start of a long and mutually beneficial enterprise together.

“I’m delighted to announce today the extension of our partnership for a further two seasons.

“Our relationship has both strengthened and blossomed during Covid-19, in what has been one of the most trying times in the history of our club.

“The media departments of both parties have collaborated well together, leading to some fantastic presence through our respective online platforms.

“I would like to place on record my thanks to our General Manager Niall Curneen for brokering this extension with Sean Maddocks at Davanti.

“Finally, could I remind all our supporters that Davanti Tyres are supplied and fitted locally by GMAC Tyres on Curran Road, another long-term partner and supporter of the club.”

Over the next two years we are looking forward to developing and growing our partnership further, with more marketing campaigns in the pipeline.

Davanti Tyres’ Sales Director for the UK and Ireland, Sean Maddocks said the chance to extend the partnership with Larne was a great opportunity for the brand.

“Larne is a forward-thinking club with great ambition, a passionate fanbase and an inspirational vision for the role a football club can play in a community,” he said.

“We have seen that first-hand this season and when Larne offered us the chance to extend we grabbed it.

“We have recently launched our new partnership programme – Make It Happen – which aims to use the power of our partners, including Larne, to offer people incredible experiences, fantastic content and where possible, do good for the community. This partnership is going to play a key role in that project.”
