We’re proud to announce that Blackrow Group will once again be the official sleeve sponsor of Grimsby Town Football Club for the upcoming 2025/26 season.

What began in 2024 as a small step into football sponsorship – with a single pitch-side advertising board at Blundell Park – has grown into a strong and meaningful partnership. Becoming the club’s sleeve sponsor marked a significant moment for us, reflecting both our growth and our shared values with GTFC.

As a Grimsby-based company, we are committed to engineering excellence and proud to serve the food and petrochemical industries across the UK and Europe. But more than that, we are deeply invested in our community. Supporting GTFC is about much more than brand exposure – it is a reflection of our long-standing belief in backing the people, organisations, and traditions that define our home.

Our Head of Business Development, Lewis Crowther, captured the spirit of our partnership perfectly:

“We are proud to continue our sleeve sponsorship with the Club that means a great deal to us, both professionally and personally. Our ongoing support of GTFC is more than just a sponsorship; it’s a reflection of our long-standing commitment to investing in the community we’re proud to call home.”

We were equally pleased to hear from GTFC CEO Polly Bancroft, who commented:

“I’m absolutely delighted that Blackrow have decided to continue as our sleeve sponsor for the upcoming season. They started off sponsoring an advertising board and have grown into an important partner with their brand on our kit. As a company that also supports our local community, I’d like to extend my thanks to everyone at Blackrow and I look forward to another exciting season collaborating together.”

At Blackrow, we see partnerships like this as more than business arrangements – they are opportunities to connect with our local area in ways that go beyond our day-to-day work. Whether it’s through supporting local sport, creating job opportunities, or delivering engineering solutions, we are passionate about making a positive impact.

We’re looking forward to the new season, cheering the Mariners on from the stands and continuing to stand proudly as a partner on the pitch.

Here’s to a successful 2025/26 season – both for GTFC and our shared community.
