Coco Joy and City Football Group in global partnership

City Football Group (CFG) has announced a global partnership between coconut brand Coco Joy and three CFG clubs.

The partnership will extend Coco Joy’s partnership with 2015 A-League semi-finalist Melbourne City, which has worked with the brand since 2014, to CFG sister clubs Manchester City and New York City.

The announcement came as Manchester City played two games in Melbourne in July as part of its pre-English Premier League season tour and follows the first game between two CFG clubs as Melbourne City took on Manchester City on the Gold Coast.

The agreement also extends the coconut brand’s relationship with Manchester City, with Coco Joy branding visible on the team’s shirtsleeves during the club’s visit to Australia, as part of a tour partnership.

In addition to a range of activations in Melbourne, Coco Joy will also boost its presence in New York and Manchester, engaging fans with giveaways and “money- can’t-buy” experiences.

“We’ve had an excellent relationship with Coco Joy in Melbourne and it’s a fantastic success story for that partnership that we’re now going to be working together at Manchester City and New York City FC as well,” said Omar Berrada, Commercial Director of City Football Marketing, which brokers CFG’s commercial partnerships.

Tim Xenos, CEO of Coco Joy manufacturer FAL Food and Beverages, said: “Coco Joy is a coconut brand dedicated to promoting a healthy lifestyle to consumers globally and we see our partnership with the three clubs as a fantastic platform to work together to help collectively promote a healthy lifestyle, while they can experience the quality, choice and enjoyment in what Coco Joy has to offer.”

Both Manchester City and Melbourne City players attended the partnership announcement in Melbourne, with a video message relayed from New York City FC.
