This decision is not just about sportswear. It reflects brand positioning and commercial strategy. Key points to consider: ↳ global and regional brands ↳ market share within the league ↳ the impact of the kit supplier on sponsorship structure Adidas is currently the most selected brand, partnering with Qarabag FK, Turan-Tovuz FK and Zira FK. Although Nike leads globally, in Azerbaijan it is chosen only by Sabah FK. Neftchi PFK and Kapaz PFK work with Kappa. Gabala FK and Shamakhi FK continue with Joma. Jako, Macron, Djevo and Erreà are represented by Araz-Nakhchivan PFK, Sumgayit FK, Karvan-Yevlakh FK and Imishli FK respectively. The global value of a kit supplier directly increases a club’s attractiveness to sponsors. Working with a recognized brand can help attract higher-tier and international companies. At the same time, more flexible or regional brands may allow greater customization of sponsorship inventory and a more optimized financial model. Some clubs prioritize global prestige. Others focus on flexibility and financial efficiency. ⟹ Which approach do you think is more effective for a club? Global brand image or a more flexible and financially optimized model?
