SAN JOSE, Calif. – The San Jose Earthquakes and Amway Global announced a 3 year agreement partnership that will have Amway Global being the Jersey sponsor and partner with the Quakes. This partnership will extend to community activities and sponsorship. Earthquakes executive vice president David Alioto said that “Putting Amway Global’s logo on our Jersey is another example of soccer’s growth as a major player in the sports marketplace. Amway Global is a dominant player in the direct selling industry, with over $7billion in sales last year. This partnership definitely gives the Quakes a strong partner and backer. Amway will sponsor the team and their logo will be on all the jerseys and team gear, and will also include signage and even a 30-foot inflatable Amway Global/Earthquakes Jersey at home games. One of the big parts of the partnership is focusing on community initiatives. Amway will be the official sponsor for Kicks for Kids, which is the Earthquakes program to focus on fitness and healthy lifestyles. It also brings underprivileged kids to Quakes games. There will also be continued support of the Hispanic community, including sponsoring the Hispanic Youth Soccer Scholarship Program. The Earthquakes and Amway Global will be presenting the first 5,000 fans with an Earthquakes Replica jersey t-shirt at the first home game match on March 21st at 7:30pm at Buck Shaw stadium. |
