The company behind Irn-Bru has been unveiled as the latest sponsor of the Glasgow 2014 Commonwealth Games.
Soft drinks firm AG Barr, whose links with Glasgow date back more than 100 years,
has been named an official
supporter of the Games.
It will support the event through a range of brands, including fizzy drink Irn-Bru and Strathmore spring water.
Water will be supplied to the athletes’ village while other drinks will be made available across Glasgow 2014 venues.
David Grevemberg, Glasgow 2014 chief executive, said: “I am delighted to welcome such a well-known Scottish brand into the Glasgow 2014 family of supporters.
“AG Barr is known around the world for being distinctly Scottish and has grown to become one of the largest soft drinks producers in the UK while remaining synonymous with the warmth and humour of Scots.
“The company has a strong track record of supporting sport at all levels from grassroots to elite and we look forward to working with them.”
The company will also support the Games through exotic juice drink Rubicon and Barr: a range of soft drink flavours.
The 20th Commonwealth Games will be held in Glasgow from 23 July 23 to 3 August 2014.
