Suzuki extends as Torino’s main sponsor

The Italian division of Japanese automotive manufacturer Suzuki has renewed its sponsorship agreement with Serie A football club Torino.

Suzuki Italia will continue to serve as the main sponsor of Torino during the 2017-18 season, with its branding to remain on the front of the club’s shirts as part of the agreement.

The two parties first teamed up at the start of the 2013-14 season. Suzuki initially served as a commercial partner before becoming the club’s main sponsor in 2015-16.

Urbano Cairo, president of Torino, said: “The data highlights the continued growth of Brand Suzuki in the last few years and this is a compliment to us because the numbers confirm the quality and results of our partnership.”

Torino finished the 2016-17 Serie A season in ninth place.
