Forenet Kredit

The partnership between Copenhagen-based Danish financial services organisation Forenet Kredit and the DBU sees the former supporting not only the Danish national football teams—both men’s and women’s—but also the DBU’s grassroots initiatives across the country.

The partnership also puts the Forenet Kredit logo on the training shirts of the Danish national teams.

STARK

The Viby-based largest dealer and distributor of building materials across Denmark has served as an official partner to the Denmark senior men’s and “Old Boys” national football teams since September 2019.

This partnership puts the STARK logo on the training shirts of the Denmark men’s national football team.

The two parties last renewed their partnership in March 2022 on a three-year deal.

Hummel

Danish sportswear brand Hummel serves as the official kit supplier to all DBU-affiliated national squads—both men’s and women’s—across all age levels.

Hummel worked with the DBU from 1979 to 2004, when it was replaced by German sportswear giant Adidas. Twelve years later, in 2016, the DBU re-signed with Hummel in an eight-year agreement.

In September 2022, Hummel unveiled the Denmark kits for the 2022 FIFA World Cup, which would be held in Qatar, with “toned down” branding. Via this move, the company intended to make a statement against the host country’s poor human rights record.

Carlsberg

The famous Copenhagen-headquartered brewery is a long-standing sponsor of the Denmark men’s national football team—since 1978.

Apart from branding rights, the deal sees the DBU and Carlsberg work on several fan engagement activities, including maintaining hospitality suites during the team’s matches. 

The two last officially renewed their sponsorship deal in September 2016.

ODDSET

Denmark’s national lottery, Danske Spil, has a partnership in place with the DBU that sees its betting brand Oddset act as the official betting partner of the Denmark men’s and women’s national football teams. 

Apart from branding rights, the deal entails the DBU and Oddset working together on various fan engagement activities while also promoting responsible gambling.

In June 2023, the DBU and Oddset renewed their partnership in an agreement set to run until 2025. Later, in July 2023, Oddset was confirmed as a sponsor of the Danish Cup (Pokalen), covering its 2023/24 to 2025/26 seasons.
