Miami FC, the only professional soccer team in Florida, signed an exclusive apparel contract with Spanish company JOMA Sport. Miami FC is now the only professional soccer team in the United States to have JOMA as its official apparel supplier.
JOMA is currently the official kit supplier for the Honduras and Nicaragua national soccer teams and also for SSC Venezia and AC Pisa (Italy), Sevilla FC, Deportivo La Corua, Getafe and Numancia (Spain), Marathon, Motagua and Olimpia (Honduras), Derby County, Cardiff and Charlton Athletic (UK) and Paran Club (Brazil), amongst other soccer clubs.
“JOMA is proud to represent the only professional soccer team in Florida and we hope that together we can help the development of this sport which is our passion,” said Santiago Fernandez, General Manager of JOMA USA, Inc. “It's a great opportunity to be able to sponsor the team that represents our city, since the JOMA headquarters in the US are located in Miami. We can only wish Miami FC the best of luck for the next season and we are certain we will be very successful together”
“We're extremely happy to have come to an agreement with JOMA to be our Official Apparel Supplier,” said Luiz Muzzi, General Manager for Miami FC. “JOMA has proven over the years that their products are top of the line, and that is very important for Miami FC. In addition, JOMA is a company committed to soccer at all levels – they understand the game, their needs, and what it takes to be successful. We look forward to a great partnership that can last for seasons to come.”
The new uniforms for the team will be made mainly of moisture management lightweight 100% polyester knit, with mesh side panels, with a design that follows Miami FC's requirements.
JOMA Sport was established in Toledo, Spain in 1965 and since then the JOMA brand has expanded internationally with subsidiary offices in the US, Germany, Mexico, Panama, Hong Kong and Italy and has established distribution arrangements in over 40 countries around the globe, including Australia since 2002.
JOMA said it is currently the #3 brand across Europe in soccer boots and a market leader in club and team wear apparel. Each year it continues to become a bigger player in the global sports brand market.
