Mobil 1 expands football sponsorship to Al-Ettifaq FC

The Arabian Petroleum Supply Company (APSCO), which markets the Mobil 1 engine oil, has signed an agreement with the Al-Ettifaq FC to sponsor the football club’s team for the next five seasons.
According to the agreement, APSCO’s brand image will be prominently displayed on the team’s apparel and on billboards and other signage at the club’s facilities.
The partnership is Mobile 1's third shirt sponsorship deal, alongside with Al-Etihad and Al-Hilal sport clubs in the Saudi Football League.
Mohammed Islam, marketing manager of APSCO, remarked: “We are delighted to add Al-Ettifaq to our football sponsorships in Saudi Arabia. It represents a further step in APSCO’s involvement and sponsorship initiatives in Saudi sports, particularly football, and will help enhance the company’s local visibility.”
He added: “It also serves as an ideal platform for reaching out to the Saudi community through sports.”
Meanwhile, Al-Ettifaq FC Chairman Khaled Al-Debel said: "We are thrilled to welcome Mobil 1 as our club sponsor for the next five years. We're really looking forward to working with them during what we are confident will be a successful season for the club."
APSCO hopes that its contributions, through this sponsorship and in conjunction with Al-Ettifaq, will help optimize the club’s facilities and lead the team toward further successes and victories.
