FLW Outdoors and BRP have signed a new multi-year agreement, marking their 9th consecutive year as a sponsor of FLW Outdoors. FLW Outdoors also confirmed that they have settled their lawsuit with BRP out of court. BRP, through its Evinrude brand remains an official sponsor and intends to continue, as it did in recent years, to offer a contingency program to reward anglers. Terms of the agreement were not disclosed.
“We are very pleased that this is behind us and BRP has decided to extend their association with FLW Outdoors,” said Trisha Blake, Chief Marketing Officer & Executive Vice President of FLW Outdoors. “We look forward to building upon our long-standing partnership with BRP as we continue to grow the sport of fishing.”
“Many professional anglers have been choosing Evinrude as their preferred brand which is why the angler community has always been a critical component of our overall marketing strategy,” stated Yves Leduc, Vice president and General Manager, North America division. “This multi-year agreement reaffirms BRP’s commitment to the outboard business through its Evinrude products and to fishing enthusiasts,” Leduc concluded.
