Main sponsor is Pierpoint's top target

EVO-STIK League Grantham Town are looking for a new shirt sponsor and corporate partner.

Officials at the Lincolnshire club announced on Thursday that they’d launched the hunt to find a business or organisation looking to tap into their status and reach in the community as one the leading clubs in the East Midlands.

Grantham Town’s chief executive officer Barrie Pierpoint, pictured, the former CEO at Leicester City credited with bringing commercial success to the club over the decade he was there, took over at The Meres in February.

He believes the new sponsorship deals the Premier Division club has launched for his first full season at the helm and in particular the premier main shirt sponsorship package, is a fantastic opportunity offering a range of benefits.

In a statement released by the club on Wednesday, the former Foxes chief said: "It is an ideal opportunity for any business to profile their company within the community at large.

"The continuous exposure within local media, our website, matchday magazine, around the stadium and further afield, will be seen by many thousands of people each week and is a golden one off opportunity for brand development. The club is offering many other sponsorship opportunities and benefits within this premier package."

He added: "Grantham Town Football Club is regarded not only as a community asset but its strategic location bordering Nottinghamshire, Leicestershire and Lincolnshire enables support to be drawn from a catchment area across the East Midlands region. The benefits are endless."
