South Melbourne FC is pleased to announce it has extended its partnership with Principal Partner Bob Jane T-Marts for a further 12 months.
Over the years, the Bob Jane T-Marts brand has been closely associated with the Club, with Lakeside Stadium being known as Bob Jane Stadium between the years 1995-2011. Furthermore, Bob Jane T-Marts logo proudly featured on the back of the South Melbourne playing shirt during the mid 1990s as well. The partnership was renewed in 2013, when Bob Jane T-Marts joined the Club as a Principal Partner, and Major Sponsor of SMFC TV screened on Channel 31, and the online version hosted on YouTube.
During the 2014 NPL Victoria season, South Melbourne and Bob Jane T-Marts teamed up to promote the Fatality Free Friday campaign, Australia’s only national community based road safety program. The South Melbourne playing squad pledged their support for Fatality Free Friday by signing both a large pledge board as well as a large inflatable car, which was used by Bob Jane T-Marts to promote the road safety campaign.
Bob Jane T-Marts has a total commitment to effectively serve the motorists of Australia with a level of service beyond their expectations, using the highest quality products and at the most competitive price. As an independent Australian business, Bob Jane T-Marts has a national network of franchised and company owned tyre retail stores, making them Australia’s largest independent tyre retailer.
