Cofidis builds cycling portfolio by signing as RFEC’s main sponsor

French financial services company Cofidis has signed on as the main sponsor of the Spanish Cycling Federation (RFEC).

Cofidis has signed an initial one-year deal with both parties expressing their hope that the agreement can be extended on a long-term basis.

Under the agreement, the Cofidis logo will appear on the front of the shirts of Spanish national teams across all disciplines and categories.

Cofidis is a long-time sponsor of cycling. In August, the company extended its partnership with the Vuelta a España ‘grand tour’ race. The new agreement will see Cofidis retain its position as a main sponsor of the race through to its 2019 edition.

Cofidis has also been a main sponsor of the Pro-Continental cycling team Cofidis Solutions Crédits since its formation in 1996.
