AESSEAL has confirmed that it has reached an agreement with Rotherham United FC to continue as the club’s Stadium Naming Rights Partner for a further five years.
The new agreement will see the Millers’ first team home carry the AESSEAL branding until the end of the 2026/27 season.
Founded by Managing Director Chris Rea in 1979, AESSEAL has been in business in Rotherham since 1984. The company now employs 1,800 people at 230 locations in 104 countries, with annual sales of more than £194m.
AESSEAL and Rotherham FC have also recently teamed up to work towards a greener environment, with AESSEAL donating two electric vehicle chargers for the use of the club’s employees.
AESSEAL Managing Director Chris Rea said:
The AESSEAL commitment is to the culture and leadership of Rotherham United, which fits with our idea of what excellence looks like. We wish everybody involved with the Club every success on and off the field now and in the future.
Rotherham United Chairman Tony Stewart said that he was immensely proud of the relationship which the club had established with one of the town’s leading businesses.
AESSEAL is a world leader in its sector, but also, importantly, a cornerstone of business in this town – where they offer many employment opportunities to the people in our community. I said when this deal was initially agreed back in 2014 that a key factor in wanting to collaborate with AESSEAL was Chris Rea and the influence he has had as a businessman over many years. Like myself, his drive and ambition has never wavered and for that reason we are greatly looking forward to what the future will hold.
