Gor Mahia secure Ksh.30 million sponsorship deal

Newly crowned Kenya Premier League champions Gor Mahia have painted the town green and financially richer after inking a renewed three-year sponsorship deal with Kansai Plascon Kenya Limited worth Ksh 30 million, just days after lifting their record-extending 22nd gong.

The agreement, finalised at a Nairobi hotel on Wednesday, represents a staggering jump from the club's previous Ksh5 million arrangement and arrives at a pivotal moment as K'Ogalo prepare for a return to Africa's biggest stage.

Overseeing the ceremony was club patron Eliud Owalo, who watched on as Plascon Managing Director Kota Enami and Gor Mahia chairman Ambrose Rachier put pen to paper.

"We are not just sponsoring a team; we are investing in Kenyan football's most successful brand," Enami remarked shortly after the signing.

Under the new structure, Gor Mahia will pocket KSh 7 million annually, with a 10 percent increase kicking in during the second and third years. But the sweeteners do not stop there.

Plascon has pledged a minimum of KSh 1.5 million to support the club's CAF Champions League campaign—a timely boost for a side eager to make noise on the continent.

Additionally, the paint giants will shell out cash rewards for every league title won, every Mashemeji Derby victory over AFC Leopards, and any notable achievements in CAF competitions.

"We are grateful to Plascon for believing in this club. This renewed and improved partnership will go a long way in stabilising our operations as we prepare for the challenges of the CAF Champions League," Rachier said.

Gor Mahia secured Kenya's sole ticket to the CAF Champions League after reclaiming the league title they lost to Police FC in the 2024/2025 campaign.
