We are delighted to announce our partnership with Sheffield Wednesday FC.
As loud and proud sports fans, this partnership is an exciting addition to what has become a remarkable Summer of Sport for Procure Smart. Alongside our continued support of sporting organisations across the UK, we were thrilled to recently see the Procure Smart brand showcased at Hillsborough in front of more than 33,000 supporters, as well as countless more viewers watching on Sky Sports.
Procure Smart is a cost-saving service for businesses of all shapes and sizes, and we are proud to already count Sheffield Wednesday among our valued clients. With over a decade of experience, our team of experts has helped businesses reduce costs through a simple, efficient process. Our motto is simple. When it comes to managing business costs, it’s time to get smart.
The partnership reflects Procure Smart’s growing presence within football. We currently work with clubs ranging from grassroots football through to established EFL and Scottish Premiership organisations, helping them reduce operational costs, improve efficiency and access specialist support across a range of business services, as well as generate valuable income to further their ambitions. Our growing football portfolio is something we are extremely proud of and demonstrates the success of our approach within the sport. We have built a strong track record of delivering genuine value and long-term support to our partners.
This partnership is about much more than brand exposure. By bringing together Sheffield Wednesday’s extensive business network and Procure Smart’s expertise across utilities and procurement, both organisations are committed to creating meaningful value for businesses throughout South Yorkshire and beyond.
Through the partnership, Procure Smart will have opportunities to engage with fellow Sheffield Wednesday partners and local businesses, sharing expertise across energy, water, waste, telecoms, merchant services and renewables, helping organisations save both time and money so they can focus on what matters most.
Craig Shields, Managing Director of Procure Smart, said: “We are incredibly excited to partner with Sheffield Wednesday. Having already developed a strong relationship with the Club as a client, this feels like a natural next step.
“We have proudly built partnerships throughout the football sector and have helped clubs save time, reduce costs, gain access to specialist support across a range of business services and generate much-needed income. Sheffield Wednesday is a fantastic football club with a passionate fanbase, and we are delighted to be working together.
“At Procure Smart, we believe in transparency and building relationships that deliver wins for all parties. Running a business is tough at the best of times, and we are committed to helping organisations save both time and money wherever we can.”
Like all Procure Smart partnerships, our relationship with Sheffield Wednesday is built on shared values, long-term thinking and a commitment to delivering positive outcomes for everyone involved.
Chief Executive Officer of Sheffield Wednesday, David Bruce said: “We are pleased to strengthen our relationship with Procure Smart through this new partnership. As we continue to develop the club commercially, it is important that we work with partners who can deliver tangible value, both to Sheffield Wednesday and the wider business community. Procure Smart bring proven expertise in helping organisations operate more efficiently, reduce costs, and identify new opportunities, and we look forward to working together to support businesses across Sheffield, South Yorkshire and beyond.”
We are extremely proud to support a club with such a rich history and loyal following, and we look forward to working closely with Sheffield Wednesday.
