Fortuna finds a new clothing partner in Robey

Tom Daemen was closely involved in the process as commercial manager: “In recent months we have had meetings with various parties. The feeling at Robey was good from the start. We had to move quickly in a short time, also because the new season is not far away. We are therefore proud to announce our new clothing partner."

Robey has been working hard in recent years. "Robey has proven to be a reliable partner. You can see that in the growth they are experiencing, at the moment they are the main supplier in Dutch professional football. In addition, the lines of communication with their suppliers are short, so that we can move quickly. As a result, the selection is in good shape from the first training, next Saturday."

Robey, which has now joined ten professional football clubs, is also pleased and delighted with the partnership. "Our partner clubs in the Eredivisie and KKD division are well distributed and spread across the Netherlands. However, we still missed a collaboration in Limburg at the highest level," says Mark Koevermans, managing director of Robey. "Given the growth we are currently experiencing and the ambitions we have as a brand to be present everywhere nationwide, we couldn't pass up the opportunity to work with Fortuna. The club plays at the highest level and has a clear vision and mission, which fit well with Robey's core values."

"Despite the time pressure in recent months, the feeling on all sides was immediately good and the talks with Ivo and Tom went energetically and professionally. We are proud that Fortuna has chosen Robey and we will do everything we can to enjoy the next four seasons together, to be successful in the Eredivisie and especially to realize beautiful jerseys for all teams of Fortuna and of course its supporters".

Robey Sportswear
Robey was founded in 1947 in Rotterdam, with the ambition to become the number one football brand in the Netherlands. Over the years, various Dutch professional clubs played with the iconic 'R' on the chest. In 2016, Robey Sportswear was revived. The clothing supplier has now grown into a leading football brand in the Benelux and has also grown into a main supplier in Dutch professional football.
