Joma UK are celebrating a continued season of success with the announcement that they will be the official kit supplier to Cardiff City Football Club, starting at the launch of the 2005/06 season.

Joma have agreed a 3 year deal to supply a full training wear collection plus both home and away strips, which is exclusive to the retail distribution channels of Cardiff City. Leisure and sports footwear ranges are also part of a supply package that is set to expand as the contract develops.

Remarking on the joint venture, John Woodfield of Joma UK said: 'Cardiff City's home and away shirts will feature up to date technical fabrics and new colours and designs. We are also delighted with the training product that will be offered to the team, in addition to the City faithful.

As Cardiff embark on their 05/06 season, we're proud to play a part through the official partnership and look forward to continued success in the exciting future that the club has planned.

David Temme, Chief Executive of Cardiff City Football Club, commented: 'A Clubs official shirt manufacturer/supplier is one of the most important contracts let by the business, the quality and design have to be right, the price has to be fair and the supply arrangements are vital to the club and fans alike.

We believe that Joma are an ideal partner for the club as it grows its business and merchandising reputation and the added opportunity of working with European manufacturers and designers to bring new ideas is exciting and hopefully a successful combination for us all.

Joma are the official kit supplier to Charlton Athletic as well as Deportivo la Coruna and Sevilla of La Liga in Spain. Cardiff City is the first club that the Spanish sportswear brand has become involved with in the UK outside the Premiership.

In addition to official kits, the Joma manufactures a comprehensive range of football boots - used by international stars such as Pavon and Helguera of Real Madrid - as well as team kits, training wear and other accessories. This range of boots, team kits, training wear and accessories is available in UK independent sports retailers.
