Dunfermline Athletic Football Club is delighted to announce that the Purvis Group will become DAFC’s first ever “Club Sponsor” in recognition of the fantastic support provided to the club over the last decade.

After 10 years of sponsoring the first team, the Purvis Group has now decided that the time is right to pass on the baton to another sponsor next season. However, they were keen to retain an ongoing relationship with our club.

The new sponsorship arrangement with the Purvis Group covers a range of areas such as advertising and assistance with stadium maintenance.

In addition, our club will also rename our main hospitality lounge, the “Kingdom Suite” as the “Purvis Suite” in recognition of the support provided personally by Bob Purvis.

Ross McArthur, Managing Director stated “I am absolutely delighted that we have managed to reach agreement with the Purvis Group to continue to work together with our club next season. Being DAFC’s first ever Club Sponsor is a fitting way of recognising their ongoing contribution. We have said many times before that the Purvis Group was never just a name on our first team shirts, but a true partner and friend to our club for 10 years.

Bob Purvis supports the club in so many areas, be it sponsorship, provision of equipment, materials or labour as well as attending and contributing to our many social events. Jim Thomson of the Purvis Group also plays a key role on our Stadium Management Group, and if a job needs done Jim normally finds a way of getting it done!”

Bob Purvis commented “We have supported DAFC for 10 years as shirt sponsor, and we are really proud of that fact but we felt it was time to give someone else the opportunity to have their company name on the strips. This does not mean that our association with the club will come to an end, as the Purvis Group are proud to take on the role of Club Sponsor where we will still do all that we can to help the club. It is also very humbling that the club have renamed the Kingdom Suite in this manner.”
