Vertu Motors Joins Argyle Journey
With tens of thousands of members of the Green Army making travel plans for Wembley Stadium and the Papa Johns Trophy Final, we are we are delighted to welcome Vertu Motors on board as Argyle’s Official Motor Retail Partner.
One of the UK’s leading automotive companies, Vertu Motors and its branding will adorn the Greens’ shirt sleeves for our clash with Bolton Wanderers at the national stadium in April, alongside numerous match-day activities and activations around Home Park throughout the Sky Bet League One run-in.
The partnership with Argyle is the latest in a long line of deals for Vertu Motors in professional sport, including name sponsorship of the PFA Fans’ Player of the Month awards, and sponsorship of a number of other EFL clubs, including Sunderland, Middlesbrough and Burnley.
The agreement with Argyle further signals Vertu Motors’ intent in the South West region, with the group having acquired Helston Garages Group and its 28 vehicle dealerships in the region last December.
James Greenacre, Argyle’s Head of Commercial, said: “We are delighted to welcome Vertu Motors to our portfolio of club partners.
“There is surely no better time to join the club than right now, with an exciting promotion run-in and the club’s first domestic cup final at Wembley Stadium to look forward to.
“Vertu Motors is another high-profile and nationally renowned partner joining an ever-growing list at Argyle. The company’s strategic investment in the South West can only be good news for the local economy, and we very much look forward to working together over the duration of the partnership.”
Nick Jones, Volvo Franchise Director at Vertu Motors and a Plymouth Argyle fan, said: “I am incredibly excited that our brand has agreed this deal with Plymouth Argyle. The club and its supporters are fantastic, and I’m sure there will be an amazing atmosphere at Wembley.
“Vertu Motors is a huge supporter of football, and sport in general, but we only work with clubs that we feel have the strongest communities and really engage with their fans. When we partner with a club, we do so because we want to raise our profile in an area but also contribute to the fans’ own experiences with their team. Plymouth Argyle fans are very passionate about their club.”
Vertu Motors has a presence in the South West reaching from Truro to Yeovil. To find your local dealership, visit their website.
