United Arab Emirates, Dubai, February 10th, 2013: Al-Futtaim Motors and the UAE Football Association have jointly announced that Toyota will be the official automotive supplier for the UAE Football Association National Teams for the coming four years including the “A” team all the way through to the U13 team. 

Through this partnership Al-Futtaim Motors will supply the UAE FA with 30 Toyota SUV and Sedan vehicles in addition to full term service packages for up to 120,000km for each car. 

Speaking at the press conference, HE Yousef Y Serkal, President UAE Football Association commented: “Sponsors always played an important role in the development of football, especially in modern times, when this game became the most popular sport in the world. We are proud to partner with corporations and national institutions that contribute to the development of this sport and provide the right support for us to reach the highest degrees of progress. We take this opportunity to thank Al-Futtaim Motors for joining family of UAEFA sponsors.”

Mr. Simon Firth, Managing Director Al-Futtaim Motors said that the sponsorship aims at connecting with the young football players and their fans at the same time. “We are delighted with this partnership as it gives us a chance to build a closer relationship with a young population including the players, officials and fans, in line with Toyota’s strategic focus on younger, more agile and fun cars,” he said.

He added “We understand that the people of the UAE have a strong passion for football. This rapidly growing sport has lately seen increasing support from all concerned parties, especially after the recent success of the UAE team at the Gulf Cup. We are proud to take part in the future successes of this nation and contribute to a more athletic community.” 

From his side, Mr. Yousef Mohamed Rasool Khoury, Head of Marketing Committee, UAE Football Association said, “Football became an integral part in people’s lives around the world. This game helped improve the infrastructure and economies of many countries that have hosted its l tournaments. We, in the UAE have shown a great interest in sport in general and football specifically. This sport managed to gain the right support from this nation’s leaders, fans and national institutions which resulted in great local, regional and international successes on the national teams’ level. 

Those achievements were made possible with the help of our partners’ support. Today we are celebrating the signing of a 4 year partnership with the Al-Futtaim Motors, to whom we express our deepest appreciation and gratitude.”

This agreement is the latest in a series of strategic sponsorship tie ups for Toyota in the UAE, in the aim of engaging each market segment with its favorite Toyota model, especially that the brand’s portfolio is as wide and diverse as the population of the UAE.
