Middlesbrough Renews Garmin Shirt Deal

Premiership club Middlesbrough has renewed its shirt sponsorship deal with satellite navigation equipment brand Garmin in the biggest such contract in the club’s history.

The one-year extension will see the Garmin logo continue to appear on the club’s shirts during the 2008-09 season.

Garmin had initially signed a 12-month principal sponsorship contract for the 2007-08 season but both parties agreed a continuation of the contract.

Garmin, designs and manufactures a range of in-car sat-nav units and electronic equipment serving the outdoor, fitness, marine and aviation sectors with technologies that are sold throughout the world. Garmin has to date sold 25m navigation devices worldwide.
