The company will take over from long-running main sponsor Flybe
Carpetright have signed up as the new main sponsor of Exeter City.
The firm will take over in the summer, replacing former Exeter airline Flybe on the club's shirts after they collapsed earlier this month.
Speaking to the club's official website, Julian Tagg, chairman and director of football, and Nick Hawker, chair of Exeter City Supporters’ Trust, said: "We are delighted to announce Carpetright as our new sponsor. As a company they share a similar ethos to Exeter City with a strong focus on community and it feels like the beginning of a fantastic partnership.
"We know that we are in very uncertain times and many of our fans will be concerned about the impact of coronavirus on their lives, but we felt it was essential to share this important and positive news for our club."
Wilf Walsh, CEO of Carpetright, was born in Exeter and is a season ticket holder and Supporters’ Trust member.
He said: “We’re pleased to be sponsoring Exeter City FC and we have committed to supporting them for the next three years. The supporter-owned club plays a vital role in the local community and we’re glad to be able to play a part in their continued success.”
