John Rooney, managing director, Flogas Ireland at the photocall to announce their new brand ambassadors, Michael Conlan and Paddy Barnes.
Flogas Ireland has announced that champion boxers Michael Conlan and Paddy Barnes are to become their new brand ambassadors. The two men, who have multiple medals and titles under their belts from the sport’s top championships, are delighted to have finally picked up a sponsor.
Paddy Barnes said: “I know there has been some surprise in media circles recently at the lack of sponsors that were supporting sportsmen like myself, despite boxing’s high profile in recent years. It’s fantastic that Flogas have come on board to support us both, and my young family & I are very grateful for their support.”
Michael Conlan added: “This sponsorship deal from Flogas is a great boost to us, and we are very grateful to them for putting their faith in us. It’s a very important year for me personally, and it really helps to be able to have the financial support of a company such as Flogas. I’m looking forward to working with the Flogas teams in Drogheda and Belfast over the course of 2016 and helping them with their promotional activity in any way I can.”
John Rooney, managing director, Flogas Ireland, said, “We’re delighted to have Michael and Paddy as brand ambassadors. They are both widely respected and very popular sportsmen with the Irish public. Their track records speak for themselves, they are a credit to their families, to boxing and Irish sport in general”
