Crown Telecom managing director, Mark Nicklin, noted, “We operate over a broad geographical base, but it feels right to support the local club, who do so much to promote the town nationally. We get a good deal from the club with ground signage, programme publicity and hospitality.”
Iain Johnstone sales and marketing manager at Rochdale AFC added, “Our fans are our biggest supporters, but local sponsors are crucial in underpinning that support and helping us to maintain the ground and facilities. Crown Telecom has been on the ball providing telephone services, installing our systems in double quick time and resolving any problems quickly.”
Crown Telecom offers a complete package of telecommunication services with hardware, line rental, broadband/data, mobiles and billing. The company took over the business of Rochdale telephone services company Strata Communications last year and has ambitions to grow the business organically and by further strategic acquisitions.
Crown Telecom is part of the Crown Group, one of the largest independent businesses in the North West. The company is a national provider of fuel and lubricants, electricity and gas services for commercial and public sector organisations and multi utility connection services for the construction sector. Crown joins other local sponsors, the Co-operative and Howarth Timber alongside kit sponsor Fila.
