ALMONDVALE RENAMED:
'THE BRAIDWOOD MOTOR COMPANY STADIUM'

Livingston Football Club are proud to announce the completion of a major new sponsorship deal, which has seen the club's Almondvale Stadium given a brand new name.

The 10,000 capacity all-seater stadium will now be known as 'The Braidwood Motor Company Stadium' until the end of the 2012-13 season after a three year 'naming rights' agreement was reached with West Lothian based Braidwood Motor Company.

The new deal is worth a five-figure sum to Livingston over the three year period of the sponsorship.

Charles Burnett, Livingston FC's commercial director said: “Braidwood have been good friends of the club for a number of years now and we're delighted that they have chosen to strengthen their association with us through this new sponsorship.

“We are working hard to built relationships with West Lothian business, and as well as being an important deal from a financial perspective, we see it as a big vote of confidence from the local community as we look to build a successful and sustainable future.”

The Braidwood Motor Company are a family run business based in Pumpherston, on the outskirts of Livingston new town.

Over the last sixteen years they have developed a strong reputation for excellent service in all aspects of the motor trade, from finance to sourcing cars, enabling customers from West Lothian and beyond to buy the car they want.

Braidwood's Neil Hogarth, a keen Livingston supporter, said: “We're very pleased to be putting our name to a stadium we have enjoyed visiting on many occasions in the past.

“From a commercial perspective, it's a great opportunity to raise awareness of our business at a local and national level and we wish Livingston good luck and continued success at The Braidwood Motor Company Stadium over the next three years.”
