Gateshead Football Club has announced its latest signing after naming Newcastle travel agents Dawson & Sanderson as official travel partner. The travel company has entered into an exclusive agreement with the club until the end of the 2022/2023 season.
As part of the deal, the travel agents will be responsible for providing travel to away games for the club’s first team and staff and will sponsor the ladies’ first-team and training kit, men’s travel kit, under 19’s training kits, and the academy kit. Match-goers will also see the Dawson & Sanderson brand promoted on matchdays throughout the reception area, the corporate suite, and pitchside at the Gateshead International Stadium. Dawson & Sanderson has also gained partner membership to the Gateshead FC Business Club, which was launched last September to increase networking opportunities for businesses in and around the Gateshead area.
Bernard McWilliams, vice chairman of Gateshead Football Club, said: “We are delighted to announce our newest partnership with such a well-known and highly respected company. The team must have a reliable, flexible travel partner, and we look forward to working with the team at Dawson & Sanderson as we go through the season.”
