MVIS to continue Gladiators shirts sponsorship in welcome financial boost

Matlock Town received a welcome boost this week when shirt sponsors MVIS agreed to continue backing the Gladiators for the coming season.

MVIS, based in Tansley, are most well known for the information signs which appear on the country’s motorways and major roads and the signs which appear both inside and at the entrance to the Proctor Cars Stadium are supplied by MVIS.

The sponsorship covers both the Gladiators’ home and away kits which have proved to be popular with the Matlock fan base.

Anne Ashman, UK Group and Operations Director at MVIS says the company is delighted to be backing Matlock, particularly in the difficult climate brought on by the Covid 19 pandemic.

“MVIS is very pleased to continue supporting Matlock Town Football Club, building on a relationship of many years working together now. It’s been an unusual time for everyone recently, which why it’s especially important to maintain our commitment to the local community and one of the ways we can do this is through sponsorship of our headquarters’ local town’s football club. We look forward to returning to a degree of normality so that everyone can see their skill, hard work and determination, which has always made them such a good fit for MVIS.”

Matlock’s Commercial Manager Tom Wright was full of praise for the support MVIS provide for the Gladiators.

“This is excellent news and as a club we’re over the moon that MVIS will again be supporting us. We have a fantastic relationship and I’d like to thank Anne and everyone at MVIS for providing this vital support in such challenging times. It really is greatly appreciated and we hope we can work together as the club hopefully progresses in the coming years.”
