The club is pleased to announce that it has today agreed a two-year kit deal with the Italian sportswear company Macron who also supply Aston Villa.

Ebbsfleet United vice chairman Peter Varney said, “We are delighted to have secured a deal with a major quality brand like Macron and look forward to working with them over the next two years. I had the pleasure of working with Andrea Palilla in Italy and their UK agent Colin Etheridge of Sports Scene when I was at Charlton and this is going to prove an important step forward for the club both in terms of financial support and brand recognition.

“As soon as they go on sale our supporters can show their support for the club by purchasing a replica home or away shirt and I hope they will do so in large numbers to add to the colour of the stadium on match days.”

Andrea Pailla said, “We have been very impressed by the speed in which the new owners of Ebbsfleet United appear to have achieved a transformation in both the image and outlook of the club and we believe they can bring success to Stonebridge Road; Macron want to be associated with such a progressive club and we very much look forward to working with them”.
