Leasing.com has announced the extension of its partnership with Macclesfield FC in a six-figure deal with the club.
The deal secures the continued naming rights to the stadium for a further three years, and the new extension means that Macclesfield FC’s home will continue to be named the Leasing.com Stadium until at least the end of the 2026/27 campaign.
Following back-to-back promotions, the club is now chasing promotion from the Northern Premier League, just three years on from being expelled from the National League and being bought by local businessman Robert Smethurst, now Director at Macclesfield FC.
He said of the extension: “Extending Leasing.com’s Stadium Sponsorship was incredibly important to me on a number of different levels. Not only is the record-breaking deal a forward-thinking one, it also respects the loyalty which Leasing.com have shown to us since day one.
“The fact that this has been agreed so early tells its own story and I would like to thank everyone at Leasing.com for their unwavering belief in all that we are trying to achieve here at Macclesfield FC.”
Bob Trafford, Head of Commercial and Sponsorships, Macclesfield Football club, concurred: “I am so pleased that Leasing.com will continue to be our Stadium Sponsor after we agreed a record-breaking three-year extension to their existing deal.
