SAN DIEGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Another win for the Hibs. Manscaped™, the global leader in men’s grooming and self-care, and Scotland’s long-cherished Hibernian Football Club are pleased to announce their extended partnership for the 2021/22 season. This year’s prestigious Scottish Premiership is already fiercely underway and, with Manscaped’s enhanced designation of Official Below-the-Waist Grooming Partner, Hibs can add a different kind of W to their scorecard.
“We knew we had a great partner in Hibernian F.C. right out of the gate. From day one, the team has gone above and beyond to welcome our brand into the Hibs family and help strengthen our relationship with fans and the surrounding Scottish community,” said Joey Kovac, VP of Marketing at Manscaped. “This year, we’re taking our partnership to the next level and have some really exciting activations in store for our combined fanbases. We’re honored to further our relationship with one of Scotland’s most admired and storied sports organizations and look forward to rooting them on this season.”
“I’m delighted Manscaped has decided to join us again this season,” said Murray Milligen, Commercial Manager at Hibernian F.C. “It’s another huge global brand to join the partnership family here at Hibernian F.C. and shows our continued growth and appeal to brands outside the UK. Manscaped achieved some great awareness and growth last season and we look forward to building on this. We’re also looking forward to working in collaboration with the Manscaped team to raise awareness of the Testicular Cancer Society and the important work that they do.”
Easter Road, the iconic Edinburgh-based stadium and home of Hibernian since 1893, welcomed back fans earlier this season. Upon return, spectators quickly noticed the Manscaped logo on full display, placed in premier locations throughout the field including the perimeter LED, big screen, and multiple advertising boards. This year’s partnership will also include digital activations through e-newsletters, social media campaigns, as well as branded content on the ever-popular platform, Hibs TV. Additionally, Hibernian and Manscaped will launch special initiatives throughout the season in support of the Testicular Cancer Society, Manscaped’s long-time partner and cause that aims to spread education and raise awareness about the disease on a global scale.
Catch Hibernian’s next match on August 28 where they take on Livingston. Filled with fan-forward activations and starring some of the most epic athletes around, this season is certainly not one to miss.
