Central Coast Mariners at full strength with Bulk Nutrients

Central Coast Mariners and Bulk Nutrients

Central Coast Mariners are continuing a successful collaboration with Bulk Nutrients, in a two-year deal that has the Australian-owned company remain as the club’s official supplement provider.

The renewal ensures Mariners’ men’s and women’s teams have access to Bulk Nutrients’ products, assisting them in areas of development, performance, and recovery.

Bulk Nutrients are dedicated to promoting health and well-being for athletes at all levels, offering a wide-range of unique products.

Its existing relationship with the Central Coast Mariners has been fruitful, with the men’s team winning the 2022/23 A-League championship.

This success earned the club a spot in the AFC Cup, which saw the Mariners combine its current A-League campaign with six midweek games; including three trips to South-East Asia.

Their qualification to the next phase of the tournament magnifies the role that Bulk Nutrients is playing in the performance and recovery of the men’s side.

The deal is also significant to its women’s team, which after 14 years away, has returned to the national stage. Support from health and well-being companies like Bulk Nutrients are crucial to sustaining the club’s involvement in elite women’s football.

Mariners CEO Shaun Mielekamp is proud to be working with Bulk Nutrients, and believes their input is crucial to the club’s on-field fortunes.

“The Mariners take player health, recovery and performance incredibly seriously, so aligning with a team of experts who use world-class innovation to help our players perform their best, both on and off the field, is vital,” Mielekamp stated via press release.

“Last season, we demonstrated our full potential and achieved remarkable results by clinching the Isuzu UTE A-League championship, and we look forward to another exciting season ahead with the Bulk team to continue playing at our best.”

Bulk Nutrients Strategic Marketing Manager Nick Purdon echoed Mielekamp’s enthusiasm.

“We are very pleased to continue working with the Central Coast Mariners,” Purdon added via media release.

“The last 12 months has been an incredible journey for the club, and we are thrilled to continue our work in providing the most innovative and optimal products for players – promoting high performance, recovery and wellbeing.”

Mariners fans have been enjoying their team’s recent successes on the field, and through the renewal of the club’s deal with Bulk, they will have access to an online discount code for all Bulk Nutrients products.

Central Coast Mariners will be hoping that its continuing alliance with Bulk Nutrients will bring them further success at national and continental level.

Oz Shipping Containers expands Newcastle Jets partnership with front-of-shirt move

Newcastle Jets have upgraded their relationship with Oz Shipping Containers, with the Newcastle-based business becoming Principal Partner of the A-League Men’s team for the 2026/27 season.

The agreement represents a significant increase in the company’s involvement with the club, moving from a sleeve sponsorship last season to the front of the Jets’ men’s playing shirts.

Oz Shipping Containers will feature on the club’s home, away and goalkeeper kits throughout the campaign, giving the business a substantially larger presence across matchday, broadcast and club content.

The partnership also provides another example of the Jets developing commercial relationships with locally based businesses and increasing their investment over time.

Oz Shipping Containers specialises in the supply and modification of shipping containers, serving customers across residential, commercial and industrial markets.

Newcastle Jets Executive Chairman Maurice Bisetto said the club was excited to build on the existing partnership.

“It is great to continue our close association with a successful local business operating on a global stage,” Bisetto said.

The expanded partnership comes as the Jets prepare for a season that will include both A-League Men’s football and AFC Champions League Elite competition, increasing the club’s exposure across domestic and Asian markets.

For Oz Shipping Containers, the front-of-shirt position provides a much broader platform than its previous sleeve placement, putting the brand at the centre of the Jets’ visual identity throughout the season.

With the Jets entering a new campaign as defending Australia Cup champions and competing in Asia, Oz Shipping Containers will now have a significantly larger platform through which to build its association with the club.

Melbourne Victory and BYD drive innovation through new major partnership

Melbourne Victory has officially welcomed BYD as a Major Partner and the Club’s exclusive Motor Vehicle Supplier for the next 12 months. At a partner launch bringing together the two organisations, the focus is on building around innovation, growth and a drive for success. The partnership will place BYD at the centre of Melbourne Victory’s fan experience. The brand will feature on the front of both the A-League men’s and women’s home and away jerseys. This gives BYD a strong presence across matchdays, broadcasts and digital content throughout the season.

The partnership extends well beyond the playing kit. BYD will be integrated across Melbourne Victory’s media, Academy and community assets. The two organisations will also collaborate through Member and pathways programs. This creates opportunities for BYD to connect with Victory supporters across multiple touchpoints.

For BYD, the partnership provides a direct connection with Melbourne Victory’s growing supporter and member base. The automotive brand has built a rapidly expanding presence in Australia and New Zealand. Its partnership with Victory provides another platform to build awareness and engage with Australian consumers. BYD Australia Chief Operating Officer Stephen Collins said the alignment between the two organisations was a key factor behind the deal.

“At BYD we’re enormously excited to welcome the Melbourne Victory into the BYD family as an exclusive automotive partner,” Collins said.

“What really appeals to us was the culture of innovation and the hunger for success.”

That alignment is reflected in the way the partnership will operate. BYD will not simply appear on Melbourne Victory assets. The brand will be connected to the Club’s members, fans, business network, pathways and community programs. Melbourne Victory Managing Director Caroline Carnegie said the partnership reflects a shared ambition for continued growth. She also highlighted the organisations’ common focus on leading, connecting and inspiring their communities. Together, Melbourne Victory and BYD will bring the partnership to life across matchdays, media, community initiatives and supporter experiences throughout the 2026-27 season.
