Italian sportswear brand Macron has agreed a ten-year partnership deal with the US Fencing Federation (USA Fencing). It is Macron’s first-ever agreement with a US national sports federation. For USA Fencing, it is the longest partnership agreement ever signed by the governing body.
Macron will supply technical sportswear to all the teams and athletes of USA Fencing. In addition to serving as the main supplier to all US national fencing and parafencing teams, the Italian brand will also work with athletes and local fencing clubs to develop custom apparel for fencers of all ages and skill levels to promote clubs and the sport at the grassroots level.
Additionally, Macron has expanded its partnership with the Confederation of North, Central America and Caribbean Association Football (CONCACAF), one of FIFA’s six continental federations. Under the terms of a previous agreement signed last March, Macron had become CONCACAF’s match official kit supplier for the next six years. The agreement is now being extended to cover the supply of a custom sportswear line for the employees, staff and volunteers of the organization. The six-year agreement covers all of CONCACAF’s men’s national team, women’s national team, under-20 and under-17 and club competitions. The partnership is expected to provide the brand with significant visibility in the CONCACAF region, where the sport is forecast to grow tremendously, said Macron.
The expanded partnership with CONCACAF was recently announced during a visit to the Macron Campus in Valsamoggia, near Bologna, by Victor Montagliani, President of CONCACAF and a Vice President of the FIFA Council.
