Niedax Group to become new Bayer 04 Leverkusen sleeve partner

Reigning German champions and DFB Cup winners Bayer 04 Leverkusen will go into the 2024/25 football season with a new sleeve partner. The Niedax Group, one of the world's leading manufacturers of cable management systems, has secured a long-term logo presence on the sleeves of the Werkself first team’s shirt following the contractual withdrawal of previous partner Trive. The contract runs until 30 June 2027, and the logo of the Niedax Group will be prominently displayed during Bundesliga matches and in any international competitions in which Bayer 04 take part over the next three years.

"With the Niedax Group, a company from our region will adorn the sleeve of our shirt in the future," said Fernando Carro, CEO of the German double winners. "Both Bayer 04 and the Niedax Group have delivered outstanding performances in the recent past. We want to build on this in the coming years and strive for further success together."

Bruno Reufels, CEO of the Niedax Group, added: “The Niedax Group has its roots in the Rhineland and, just like Bayer 04 Leverkusen, has made it to the absolute top level both nationally and internationally with solid and strategically far-sighted work. Regardless of the club's double win, we wanted to expand our partnership, which has existed since 1997. As the new sleeve partner, the Niedax Group is now very proud to be even closer to this successful team in the truest sense of the word and to support them in achieving their sporting goals. Simultaneously, we expect the partnership to bring significant added value for our sales and marketing goals and want to fill them with vitality in the long term.” 

Markus Breglec, Chief Marketing and Innovation Officer at Bayer 04 Leverkusen, explained: "The expansion of our 27-year partnership with the Niedax Group is an outstanding sign of our long-standing collaboration. The mutual trust and appreciation we have for each other are just two factors in our solid foundation. I am personally delighted that we are now continuing our joint journey with the sleeve partnership for the Bundesliga and Champions League." 

Niedax and Bayer 04 Leverkusen entered into their first co-operation back in 1997, initially as partners in the Business Club. As the co-operation progressed, both sides continuously expanded their successful relationship. Most recently, Niedax acted as a partner in the Bundesliga club's Sponsors Club. After 27 years of involvement at various sponsorship levels, the company will now make the step up to being Bayer 04 Leverkusen's official sleeve partner for the 2024/25 season.

In addition to the sleeve presence on the shirt, the Niedax Group's contractual rights at Bayer 04 Leverkusen include advertising on TV-relevant press back walls and LED advertising boards. This is complemented by visibility in the VIP areas of the BayArena at Bundesliga home fixtures, as well as other advertising services such as promotional campaigns and digital rights. The Niedax Group also has its own executive box in the Leverkusen stadium.

The Niedax Group will also be a strong partner of the Bayer 04 Women in the Google Pixel Women's Bundesliga in future. The company is also the sleeve partner on the shirts of the U17 and U19 youth teams as well as the #B04eSports team of Bayer 04.

Bayer 04 lose 1-0 to Marseille in first Europa League defeat

After three consecutive wins in the Europa League, the Werkself suffered their first European defeat of the season against Marseille. In a first half with few chances, the Black and Reds gradually gained more and more control of the game, but were unable to convert that advantage into goals. Miguel Gutiérrez came closest to putting Leverkusen ahead with a shot that hit the crossbar. In the second half, the French side produced clinical finishing, with Amine Gouiri scoring from a counter-attack to make it 1-0 (77’). Right up to the final whistle, the Werkself threw everything forward in search of an equaliser, but were unable to find a way back into the game.
