Builders merchant group Huws Gray Group, has announced a partnership with Professional Game Match Officials (PGMO).
As official kit sponsor for the 2025/26 football season, the Huws Gray logo will appear on the matchday and training kits of referees, assistant referees and VAR officials across all English professional football matches, spanning the Men’s Premier League, Premier League 2, Premier League Cup, Premier League International Cup, EFL Championship, EFL League 1 & 2, League Cup, EFL Trophy, FA Cup, Community Shield, National League, National League Cup, Women’s Super League 1 & 2, FA Cup and League Cup competitions.
The Huws Gray-branded kit will make its debut on Friday 8th August in the Championship match between Birmingham City and Ipswich Town.
The group is also embarking on a re-branding programme, uniting businesses within the Group, and updated visuals, signage, uniforms, fleet and online presence will be rolled out over the coming months.
CEO Daksh Gupta, said: “This partnership is built on shared values of fairness, integrity, expertise, and professionalism – principles that resonate deeply with both organisations and the wider football community.
“We know that over 83% of our customers follow football and that’s why we have strategically aligned ourselves behind the sport. The partnership with PGMO gives us an exciting opportunity to reach new and existing customers through football, whilst retaining neutrality and not showing bias towards a particular team. It also underscores our ambition to grow our presence and compete at the highest level.
We are also delighted that the sponsorship covers both the men’s and women’s competitions, especially given the incredible success of our Lionesses. This also aligns with our commitment to promoting diversity and inclusion, both at Huws Gray and in the wider sector.”
