Rochdale Hornets announce strategic partnership with Nando's

Rochdale Hornets are delighted to announce a new strategic partnership with much-loved worldwide food chain Nando's.

The agreement will allow Hornets Platinum Club members, season ticket holders and All Hornets Supporters Association members to access 20% off Nando's when eating at their Rochdale and Bury restaurants.

A Nando's-inspired warm-up shirt has also been designed by our official kit and teamwear provider, ICON Sports, and will be worn by our women's and wheelchair teams throughout the 2025 season. 

Supporters will be able to pre-order the warm-up shirt, which is available at the early bird price of £29.95, from midday on Friday 14 March.

PLEASE NOTE: This early bird price will only be available until Friday 28 March.

Shirts will be ready for collection from Saturday 10 May. They can be pre-ordered in all sizes from 2yrs to 6XL. 

As part of their ongoing support of the club, Nando's will sponsor the club's Man of the Match award, voted for by supporters, and will also be part of a joint initiative which will see free children's meals issued at half-term camps being run by the Rochdale Hornets Sporting Foundation.

Rochdale Hornets general manager Matt Rigby said: "We are absolutely delighted to announce our new partnership with Nando's, a household name that resonates with millions across the UK and beyond. 

"Nando's is a global brand renowned for its passion, innovation and commitment to quality, and we are incredibly proud to have them join the Rochdale Hornets family.

"This partnership is an exciting moment for the club. Nando’s has a significant presence in the UK, and to have them join us as a key partner shows how much potential there is within our community and our club. 

"We believe this collaboration will help elevate Hornets, bringing greater exposure to the club and creating exciting opportunities for our supporters, local businesses and the wider Rochdale area.

"We’re incredibly proud to have Nando's as part of the Hornets family and can’t wait to work together to bring some unique and memorable experiences to the people of Rochdale and Bury. 

"This is just the beginning, and we look forward to seeing how this partnership will benefit our club and our towns in the years to come."

Nando’s regional MD Sarah Doble said: “We're fired up to announce our saucy new partnership! 

"Nando's is teaming up with Rochdale Hornets to bring the heat on and off the field, so get ready for an exciting season filled with passion, flavour and unbeatable team spirit."

ICON Sports director Greg Tattersall said: “At ICON, we’re fired up to provide the Nando’s Hornets kit which we believe blends bold design and really helps bring the heat for the Hornets, on and off the pitch. 

“It’s more than just a kit: it’s a statement of passion, igniting partnerships and supporting fierce competition.”
