Leeds United are delighted to announce that Clipper Logistics Plc will become the new Official East Stand sponsor at Elland Road.

Leeds headquartered Clipper is one of the leading providers of value-added logistics solutions and e-fulfilment to the retail sector in the United Kingdom, with a growing business in Germany. 

The Group provides consultancy-led services within the online fashion and non-food sectors to its blue chip client base including ASOS, The John Lewis Partnership, Asda, SuperGroup, Morrisons, New Look and Tesco.

The new agreement will see the Clipper name adorn the highly-visible gable ends of the stand along with the front roof fascia of the stand itself, ensuring the Clipper name is seen by the circa 30million vehicles which pass the stadium each year, as well as fans in the stadium and television audiences worldwide.

Steve Parkin, founder and Executive Chairman of Clipper, said: "As a lifelong Leeds fan, I’m delighted to have the business I’ve built over the past two decades become a sponsor of the club.

"It will expose the Clipper name to a global audience, as we continue to grow as a business and help shape the future of retail logistics. This association is a great partnership between Clipper and Leeds United, and I look forward to seeing it flourish."

Leeds United's Executive Director, Paul Bell, added: “We are delighted that Clipper Logistics Plc has chosen to sponsor the East Stand here at Elland Road.

"Clipper was founded in Leeds and has been a huge success story for the region, expanding across the UK and into Europe. We are delighted to welcome them into our commercial partner’s programme. We look forward to working with Steve and the rest of the Clipper team on this partnership."
