Aside from that, the company will gain exposure on LED billboards, hospitality materials and tickets when Palermo is playing on home turf at Stadio Renzo Barbera.
Commenting on the announcement, the executive manager of Palermo, Angelo Baieuera, said: “Attracting the interest of companies operating internationally and in sectors not traditionally linked with football is a clear indication that our club is gaining stronger visibility and interest abroad.”
