Liverpool announce first ever family partner
Liverpool FC have announced they have signed a three year partnership deal with Joie. The deal means Joie will become the Club’s first Official Family Partner and Global Baby Gear Partner.
The partnership will kick off this weekend at Liverpool World in Shanghai, where Joie will be hosting a two hour football clinic led by Liverpool coaches for children aged six to eight.
In 2018, Joie will launch a range of Liverpool FC branded products, as well as working with the Club to deliver a host of family focused events. Additionally, the partnership will offer Joie additional social media and marketing support as well as access to Liverpool players and legends throughout the season.
