Offaly GAA has confirmed a lucrative five-year deal with Glenisk, ending one of the longest shirt sponsorships in Irish sport.
It sees the more than three-decade association with Carroll Cuisine come to a close. The Carroll’s branding first appeared on the Offaly jersey back in 1991, when shirt sponsorship was first permitted in the GAA, placing it alongside the likes of the Kerry Group and Supermac’s in terms of longevity.
But the package with Glenisk, believed to be worth around €750,000 over five years, has proved too good for Offaly to turn down and would apparently more than double what they had been receiving from Carroll’s per annum in recent years.
