Sligo Rovers are delighted to receive a brand-new Club Kit Van, powered by Porter Ford in Castlebaldwin, Sligo.

The van, which will be used across the club for our Kit & Equipment needs is a welcome addition and will see the Bit O’ Red brand seen nationwide throughout the 2023 season.

Chairman Tommy Higgins says the van is an important part of our logistics and operations:

‘’This is a welcome addition to the club and we are very grateful to everyone at Porter Ford for helping us bring it to fruition.

‘’The van looks great and it will be brilliant to see it travelling around the country with the team and around the region for promotional activity or community work and school visits.

‘’It is something we have been trying for for a while now so, we are delighted to get it’’.

The new 2023 Ford Custom Transit is consistently the best selling van in Ireland and Europe and is the perfect partner for us in our pursuit of points.

David and Ray Porter from Porter Ford are happy to come on board to provide the club with the kit van:

‘’We would like to thank everyone from Sligo Rovers for giving us this opportunity and welcoming us to their family. We are inspired by the club ethos and real feeling of positivity within the club which has made the decision to support the club an easy one to make. The timing is perfect for us as we embark on a new era of commercial vehicles with the Ford Pro service and the beginning of our electrification journey for vans.  

The van will be on the road for the first time tonight as the Bit O’ Red take on Dundalk at Oriel Park.
