Kent Cricket has secured a hat-trick of commercial deals as it continues its preparations for the new season.
The county club has renewed contracts with three existing partners.
They include Canterbury-based motor dealership Barretts Group, which will continue as the club's official car partner for the 2020 season and continue to be the club's official training kit partner after penning a three-year deal.
Also signing on for another year is Ashford-based HR GO Recruitment.
It will continue to be title sponsor of the Harris Room at the club's Canterbury home - a position it has held since 2016.
It also works with the club to provide staff for match days, events and functions at the Spitfire Ground in Canterbury and the County Ground in Beckenham.
And finally, T Parker & Sons renews its partnership. It has been a business partner of the club for the last two years and supplies work-wear for the club's ground staff.
Paul Barrett, managing director at Barretts, said: "We are proud to be extending our association with Kent Cricket, especially this year as Kent Cricket celebrates its 150th year anniversary. Exciting times lie ahead and we are looking forward to our next three years of partnership."
Bob Cook, founder and director at T Parker and Sons, added: “Having had two successful years as a business partner with Kent Cricket it just seemed logical that we signed a new deal. It is a pleasure for me to work with the club’s ground staff on a regular basis and long may it continue”.
While Roddy Barrow, group MD at HR GO plc, said: “The Harris Room is a fabulous venue for both business and cricketing events – we’ve had many a productive and entertaining evening with clients and colleagues.”
Emma Santer, Kent Cricket's commercial director, added: "We are delighted to have them all joining us once again."
