Today is the official date on which the 125th “anniversary” of Udinese Calcio is celebrated, an anniversary that the Bianconeri club also celebrated in the days before with several events and the launch of the ‘Anniversary’ third jersey that Macron, the Hero company and the club’s technical sponsor have created “telling” the club’s history through the historical logos that have characterized the Bianconeri’s jerseys from 1896 to today.
Today, the celebratory event held at the Macron Store Dacia Arena in the presence of Franco Collavino, General Manager of Udinese, the Bianconeri players Lazar Samardzic and Brandon Soppy, and some fans, symbolically invited because they were born on November 30th, was also the opportunity to officially announce the extension of the partnership between the Emilian brand and the Friulian club. A relationship that began in 2018 and was extended until June 2025.
A partnership that continues with mutual satisfaction and in perfect harmony also in the context of the environmental sustainability projects that the Emiliano brand and the Friuli club fully share and that are concretely expressed in the production of jerseys with 100% recycled plastic fabric.
“Having a shared vision and a common understanding of the goals of sustainability and quality of life – stated Gabriele Tacconi, Sports Marketing Manager of Macron, present at the event – allows us to give a value to a relationship like the one between Macron and Udinese that goes beyond the purely technical aspect. The mutual trust and passionate collaboration between our two entities allow us to program and realize increasingly exclusive, sought-after and technically advanced products. A club with a history like this and a strong connection with the territory it represents allows us to design jerseys that become ‘narrative and emotion’, which we are happy to continue offering to the club and its fans for the seasons to come.”.
“This extension demonstrates the strength and the exchange of values with Macron – points out the General Manager of Udinese Calcio Franco Collavino – It is not common to extend an agreement that is valid for another two seasons; this shows that our partnership is finding more and more fertile ground to develop new activities. Macron, for 4 seasons now, designs fantastic jerseys that have become iconic, not least the celebratory one for our 125th anniversary but how can we forget the one dedicated to the Fogolars Furlans of last season? Furthermore, our relationship shares and enhances common visions beyond football, especially the one of eco-sustainability for which Udinese and Macron are fighting front and center, with shared projects such as those we request from all our partners who share this crucial challenge with us. In this sense, what has been done with Macron regarding our green playing jerseys represents an extraordinary boost.”
