The Macron Hero logo will appear on the national team shirts of the Nigerien Football Federation for at least the next two seasons. Under a new partnership agreement, Macron will provide technical garments and match wear for the senior and youth teams. The top-quality garments will feature graphics that convey and promote the colours, symbols and history of the national squad.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>The Nigerien Football Federation has only recently celebrated its 60th anniversary. The Federation was formed in 1961, and later joined CAF (Confederation of African Football) and FIFA. Niger\u2019s national team played in two editions of the African Cup of Nations, in 2012 and 2013. The team\u2019s players are nicknamed the \u2018M\u00e9nas\u2019 \u2013 the word for the Dama gazelle in the Hausa language. The Dama gazelle is typical of this part of Africa: i has been adopted as a national symbol in Niger and appears on the badge of the Football Federation. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>The national team colours are orange and green, like those of Niger\u2019s flag. Orange symbolises the sands of the Sahara desert and green its oases \u2013 and hope. These national symbols are sure to find a place on the new shirts that Macron will be supplying to the teams of FENIFOOT, as the Federation is known. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p> \u201cWe are delighted to welcome the Nigerien Football Federation and their teams into the great Macron family. The arrival of this footballing nation will help us expand our market in Africa,\u201d Francesco Ventura, Area Manager of Macron states. \u201cIn this latest project in support of a Federation that is determined to grow technically, we shall be supplying team wear that simply cannot be beaten either technically or in terms of design,\u201d adds Silvio Martinuzzi, Area Manager of Macron.<\/p>\n<div class=\"image-news-imported\">\n  <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/\">\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>African football is wearing Macron more than ever.
