Esh Group renews Newcastle Eagles sponsorship

Construction firm Esh Group had agreed a three year deal to renew its sponsorship of Newcastle Eagles basketball team.

Esh, which has sponsored the team for seven years now, will have its logo adorn the newly-launched Kappa team kit

Chief executive Brian Manning and the Eagles’ managing director Paul Blake, along with a number of players, were on hand to celebrate the deal at the Vueling Quayside Seaside in Newcastle.

In 2013 the Eagles underwent a rebrand to the Esh Group Eagles Newcastle and Paul Blake reiterated how important it was for the firm to continue to be associated with local community.

“During the last five years they’ve been incredibly supportive of our team and our business, and it’s exciting to continue that work.

“Esh Group has been at the heart of our grassroots community activity and the growth of the Eagles brand.”

Brian Manning added: “Esh Group is committed to supporting the communities in which we work.

“Our long-standing partnership with the Eagles is a key part of that work, and we’re thrilled to take it forward.

“Seeing Esh Group and the Eagles grow together has been extremely rewarding for our team, and the sponsorship is a source of pride for our staff.

“I love seeing the team play – they’re an asset to the region.”

Esh reported healthy results for 2015 in July earlier this year, generating £275m in turnover and £8.6m in pretax profit.
