International Weightlifting Federation extends with partners

The International Weightlifting Federation has renewed partnerships with five of its equipment suppliers.

DHS, Eleiko, Uesaka, Werksan and ZKC have each signed new deals with the IWF that will run until the 2020 summer Olympic Games in Tokyo, Japan.

The extensions were announced during a meeting between the IWF and the five companies in Budapest, Hungary.

IWF president Tamas Ajan said: “We are extremely satisfied to sign in for another Olympic term with our longstanding partners. The innovative approach of these companies – working not only on product development but investing in our athletes and sport – makes us proud and willing to ensure the best cooperation possible in the future.”
