ALTRAD SCORES TRY WITH WESTERN FORCE

Altrad is pleased to announce that it has signed a four-year, agreement to become the Principal Partner of the Western Force, commencing from the start of the new-look 2022 Super Rugby Pacific and women’s Super W rugby union campaigns.

As Principal Partner, Altrad’s logo will be displayed on all of the Force’s home-and-away strips and training apparel.

Altrad identified the Force as an ideal partner to advance it’s push to champion rugby’s ability to connect communities, cultures, and fans and to empower people to make more of their world.

Altrad’s global strategy is to support rugby at all levels from grassroots up to international level, make the game more accessible to First Nation junior players and support female and diverse participation.

As an advocate of increasing employment opportunities for people of diverse backgrounds, Altrad believes it can enhance this message and reach through our new association with the Western Force.
