Nuevo acuerdo de licencia con la Federación Africana de Fútbol, socio de PUMA®, aumentará la presencia del fútbol africano en Latinoamérica.

PUMA® hoy anunció su asociación con Centauro, la cadena retail deportiva más grande de Latinoamérica, por la cual poseerá los derechos sobre cuatro federaciones africanas: Costa de Marfil, Ghana, Camerún y Senegal.

Desde el principio de esta unión, los artículos oficiales estarán a la venta en las tiendas Centauro de Brasil. Para aumentar la visibilidad de este foco creciente del Fútbol africano, PUMA y las tiendas Centauro trabajarán juntos para activar una campaña de Marketing en la que estará Costa de Marfil y el centrocampista del Marchester City, Yaya Touré. El patrocinado estrella de PUMA, jugador del año de la Copa Africana de las Naciones 2012, estará en las campañas ATL y BTL para promover la disponibilidad de las réplicas que existirán de Costa de Marfil, Ghana, Camerún y Senegal en las tienda Centauro.

Stefano Caroti, Chief Commercial Officer de PUMA, comentó: "Esta nueva unión con Centauro es una movida positiva para la marca y una demostración de nuestro compromiso continuo hacia el fútbol africano. Nuestro viaje con el Fútbol en ese continente comenzó hace más de diez años y lo mantendremos así. El fútbol africano está creciendo mucho y con eso, aumenta su credibilidad en América Latina, una región con mercado creciente y oportunidades comerciales y de crecimiento para los productos oficiales. Esperamos que con esta asociación podamos aumentar la visibilidad de las naciones africanas para la Copa Mundial FIFA 2014.

Sobre la nueva asociación, el dueño de Centauro, Sebastião Bomfim Filho comentó: "Estamos muy emocionados de trabajar con PUMA y tendremos varias activaciones de Marketing interesantes preliminares al Mundial guardadas para el final, que podrán conocer durante el 2013. Hemos visto un crecer el interés por el fútbol africano en nuestra región y esta es una gran oportunidad para comenzar a comercializarlo. PUMA es la marca con más historia en el fútbol africano y por eso se convierte en el socio perfecto para esta nueva etapa".
