Peterborough United will team up for the 2008-2009 season with adidas, the world's leading sports brand.
The Posh have entered into a three-year agreement with adidas to supply team and staff kit and branded merchandise, including replica kit, for sale through the Peterborough United Club Shop and online at the official website.
Peterborough United chairman Darragh MacAnthony said: 'Peterborough United Football Club is a progressive club who are moving towards the top of the football pyramid. With this in mind, we are pleased to announce that we have entered into an agreement with adidas to form a partnership that will grow from strength to strength.
'I have had a conversation with the three Supporters' Groups and informed them of my decision and we will be working closely with them to make this unforeseen change an easy and fair one for our supporters. I would like to apologise for this unforeseen change and promise fans it was never our intention to change kit suppliers so soon.'
Gavin Thomson, sales director, adidas area North, said: 'adidas are delighted to enter into a kit supply agreement with Peterborough United Football Club. It is an exciting period for the club and adidas are looking forward to growing a very strong mutually rewarding partnership as Peterborough progress through the leagues.'
It is anticipated that next season's Posh replica strip, made by adidas, will be available at the PUFC shop before the end of the current campaign. Further details about the new kit will be released next week.
