Nottingham Forest has signed a multi-year agreement with Marex, naming the global financial services company its new Principal Partner and front-of-shirt sponsor from the 2026/27 season.

Marex branding will appear on the front of the men's and women's teams' playing and replica shirts, as well as on Nottingham Forest Netball team dresses. The agreement also gives the company a significant presence at the City Ground and across the club's digital platforms.

The partnership includes a financial services component alongside the sponsorship rights. Marex becomes Forest's Global Markets Partner and exclusive provider of foreign exchange and other financial services.

Marex Takes Forest's Principal Sponsorship Asset Nottingham

The front of the men's first-team shirt provides Marex with Forest's highest-profile sponsorship inventory as the club enters its fifth consecutive Premier League season.

The company will also appear on the women's shirts as Forest Women compete in Women's Super League 2, while its presence on Nottingham Forest Netball's dresses extends the agreement across three elite teams within the organisation.

Replica shirts are included in the rights package, giving Marex additional visibility through merchandise worn by supporters.

Stadium branding at the City Ground and exposure through Forest's digital channels complete the principal media assets included in the agreement.
