Boxing promotional syndicate, Ace Power Promotions (APP), yesterday signed a partnership agreement with Symmetry Gears, distributors and marketers of sportswear and equipment.
The deal was to strengthen ties between the two institutions, support their athletes with boxing equipment and promote their brand through boxing promotions.
Speaking on the sponsorship, General Manager of Symmetry Gears, Mr. Emmanuel Jojo-Forson said the deal formed part of their social responsibility and pledged his firm’s unflinching support to the promotion of boxing on Ghana.
“One of our social responsibilities is to support boxing and other sporting disciplines. We are open to collaborate with firms who will need our services to build their brand and also provide sporting gadgets to athletes who excel in their respective fields,” he said.
Mr. Jojo-Forson said, the partnership will last for a year and be renewed yearly.
Speaking at the event, Managing Director of APP, Mr. Isaac Amankwah expressed his profound gratitude to Symmetry for the timely intervention.
“This partnership means a lot to us because of the kind of boxers we work with. Most of these boxers can’t afford training equipment and with Symmetry coming on board at this time will help them in their careers,” he said.
Mr. Amankwah was optimistic that the partnership would go beyond just sponsorship but also market both parties to the world.
