The Danish sportswear company hummel will become the official kit supplier of SV Werder Bremen from the 2023/24 season and will provide the match and training kit for Werder’s Bundesliga team, as well as other Green-Whites athletes.
“We are delighted that we have been able to secure a brand steeped in tradition for this partnership with Werder, one that is also known worldwide and combines sport and lifestyle,” said Klaus Filbry, CEO of SV Werder Bremen. “Sustainability is part of our new partner’s mission statement. Tradition, authenticity and passion for sport are part of their DNA, so hummel fits brilliantly to SV Werder and its values.”
The Green-Whites are throwing back to the 1970s with their new kit supplier. The team wore hummel kits for two Bundesliga seasons from 1976 to 1978, which unusually were blue because of the club’s main shirt sponsor back then. The Danish company, which is also actively involved in handball sponsorship, is already the kit supplier for fellow German top-flight side 1. FC Köln.
hummel CEO Allan Vad Nielsen: “We’re incredibly proud to unveil our new partnership with Werder Bremen, one of the most iconic football clubs in Germany. This presents a great opportunity for us to expand our presence as a football brand in the country, and we are thrilled to support such a prestigious football club that aligns with our values and commitment to community engagement. We look forward to working with them again, and together we strive to bring groundbreaking products to the passionate fans of this esteemed club.“
The extensive partnership was mediated by Werder’s marketing partner, the international sports marketing agency Infront. Marco Sautner, Managing Director of Infront Germany, said: “With hummel and Werder Bremen, we have brought together two authentic and strong brands, who are well loved by their fans and followers, which is something that puts this partnership in very good stead. We’re looking forward to seeing an exciting product range, and wish them all the best for the start of their collaboration next season.”
