Handball Bundesliga club manufactures extension with main sponsor

German Handball Bundesliga club Bergischer HC has renewed its main sponsorship deal with aluminium and steel products manufacturer WKW automotive.

The new five-year deal will run until the end of the 2020-21 season.

Under the agreement, WKW automotive’s branding will continue to feature on the front of the club’s playing jerseys. The company will also receive promotion via the club’s media channels and benefit from hospitality, ticketing and marketing packages.

"With this long-term contract, we want to set a clear signal," WKW automotive managing director Peter Kruft (right of picture) said. "Our contribution is a commitment to the sport and the performance of BHC, which has managed to maintain itself in a strong competitive environment."

WKW automotive first partnered with Bergischer HC ahead of the 2015-16 Bundesliga season.
