Find out how our new partnership will help National Governing Bodies (NGBs) and sports organisations to create and sell branded merchandise with zero hassle.
We’re extremely excited to announce our new partnership with Kitlocker, which will give our clients direct access to their market-leading print-on-demand service and sports merchandising expertise.
This collaboration will support the organisations we work with to easily launch, manage, and sell custom merchandise, boosting brand visibility and unlocking new revenue opportunities without the usual operational overhead.
Kitlocker are recognised for their innovative approach to custom sportswear and merchandise, and have worked with global brands such as The FA and the Premier League to deliver high-quality, on-demand products. With their reputation for service and technology, they’re a natural fit for what we do at Sport:80 (and they’re a Sheffield-based company, too!).
“We’re incredibly excited to be partnering with Sport:80,” said Mike Kent, Co-Founder & Managing Director at Kitlocker.
“This collaboration brings together two Sheffield-based companies with a shared mission to support grassroots and elite sport through smart technology.
“We believe this partnership will remove many of the barriers sports organisations face when it comes to merchandising and brand building, and give them the tools to offer professional, high-quality products to their communities without the operational headaches that usually come with it.”
By integrating Kitlocker’s fulfilment service with the Sport:80 Platform, our clients will be able to offer branded kit and products to their members without worrying about inventory, printing, or shipping. Everything is handled by Kitlocker’s print-on-demand system, while our Platform ensures a smooth and connected member and user experience.
We’ve built the integration to make merchandising as simple and scalable as possible. You’ll be able to launch your own store, set your product range, and start selling easily - no stock rooms or spreadsheets required.
“This partnership is part of our broader strategy to enhance the Sport:80 Platform through integrations that deliver real, tangible value to our clients,” said our COO, Jonny Turner.
“Our goal has always been to create a central hub for sports organisations to manage everything in one place - membership, events, compliance, and now, merchandising.
“With Kitlocker, we’re not just adding a feature - we’re solving a long-standing challenge for many of our clients and giving them a new way to engage members and generate revenue without additional admin or cost.”
More information about this partnership will be announced soon, and we can’t wait to show you what it can do!
