Partick Thistle FC is delighted to announce that Greaves Sports will become the club’s exclusive retail partner from June, in an initial three-year agreement.
The announcement reunites two Glasgow institutions and will see Thistle kit and leisurewear available from Greaves’ online shop and flagship Gordon Street store for the next three seasons.
The news follows the unveiling earlier this week of O’Neills Sportswear as the club’s new official supplier of team kit for the Partick Thistle men’s and women’s first teams as well for the Thistle Weir Youth Academy squads.
Gerry Britton, Partick Thistle Chief Executive, said: “Everyone at the club is thrilled to welcome back Greaves Sports as Thistle’s retail partner, capping a very positive week for the club.
“Thistle have enjoyed a longstanding affiliation with Greaves Sports whose values as a family business are very much in line with our own. We have great confidence that Sandy, Miller and the team at Greaves will provide a first-class customer experience for our supporters, both online and, importantly, with their city centre presence.”
The partnership between Thistle and Greaves Sports is for an initial three years with an option to extend.
Miller Greaves, Director of Greaves Sports, said: “It’s brilliant news for Greaves Sports to be partnering with Partick Thistle once again given the genuine affection we have for the club and its supporters.
“Greaves Sports has a long history with the Jags, including with our good friend Alan Rough and the 1971 heroes, a certain medal-winning David McCallum who worked with us while playing in red and yellow and more recently through Alan Archibald, Ian McCall and others from the club being familiar faces to us.
“Most of all, we enjoy great relationships with many Thistle supporters; we very much look forward to welcoming them to our store and working with our friends at O’Neills to give all Jags fans the best possible experience.”
Greaves Sports has also informed the club that, regardless of what league Thistle compete in next season, Thistle will be regarded by Greaves as a Scottish Championship club and the deal will continue to reflect that.
