AS Monaco has recruited notable fashion jewellery company APM Monaco as its new principal partner, ending the local Tourist & Convention Authority’s brief tenure as the club’s front-of-shirt sponsor.

This relationship will allow for the sharing of similar values such as originality, determination, and dynamism, as well as the promotion of the Principality’s image.

Various activities planned throughout the cooperation, such as the production of a special and exclusive collection, will allow the two businesses to become more acquainted with their respective communities.

Operating all around the world, the Monegasque brand was featured on the front of AS Monaco’s players jersey early last month in a league game against Brest at the Stade Louis-II.

This collaboration will be beneficial for both parties, since APM Monaco is the frontrunner of the chic fashion jewellery market, whereas AS Monaco has the best image in France benefits from the international exposure, backed by its large community of over 24 million followers on social media.

AS Monaco CEO Thiago Scuro outlined what the new partnership will symbolise.

“We are delighted to welcome APM Monaco, a symbol of Monegasque elegance, as the Club’s new main partner,” he said via press release.

“This association between two brands sharing the same local anchorage and both showcasing the Principality on the international stage was an obvious choice. We are looking forward to this collaboration, which once again demonstrates the Club’s appeal and AS Monaco’s ability to respond to different brand challenges.”

APM Monaco CEO Philippe Prette added via press release:

“As a Monegasque brand, we are extremely proud to support AS Monaco. This partnership was an obvious way of highlighting our Monegasque origins and our pride in contributing to the image of the Principality. It’s a wonderful professional and personal adventure.”

APM Monaco is a fashion jewellery brand combining the chic of Monaco with the lifestyle of the South of France. It all began with the founder and her son in Monaco, Monte Carlo, in 1982. Philippe Prette, now CEO, created the brand with his wife, Kika Prette, key manufacturers of gold, diamonds and other precious stones for renowned jewellers around the world.
