Burnley FC renew Vertu Motors partnership

Burnley Football Club have renewed their partnership with the Vertu Motors group, which will see the automotive dealer Bristol Street Motors continue on as the Official Automotive Retail Partner of the club. 

The deal will see Bristol Street Motors continue to have branding presence on the back of the Burnley playing kits.

Stuart Hunt, Burnley FC’s President of Business Operations, commented:

“We’re pleased to have the continued support of Vertu Motors and in an exciting development for the 2024/25 campaign, the Group’s nationally recognised brand Bristol Street Motors. Since we first joined forces, we’ve been impressed by Vertu’s commitment to supporting the local community, particularly the foodbank and Whitehough Outdoor Centre initiatives – which made a real tangible difference to our charity Burnley FC in the Community. This is an important element of the partnership and I’m looking forward to enjoying further success together over the course of the season.”

Robert Forrester, Chief Executive of Bristol Street Motors, added:

“We are delighted to continue our relationship with Burnley Football Club into a third season, and also to now align the Club with the Bristol Street Motors brand. Given that this season marks 100 years of Bristol Street Motors, it is the perfect time for the brand to sit alongside one of the oldest clubs in the professional game, and one that holds special significance on a personal level having been a Burnley FC fan for so many years.

“This season, we are excited to continue working with Burnley’s community arm to strengthen our ties with the local area. Our nearby Vertu Nelson Land Rover centre will continue to have a close relationship with the Club, as will our other local Vertu Motors dealerships. We are equally thrilled that Bristol Street Motors, a nationally recognised brand and Official Partnership of the EFL, will back Burnley going forward. We wish the Club the best of luck this season and very much look forward to the first fixtures next month.”
