Vancouver Whitecaps FC have signed Craftsman Collision as the club’s Official Autobody Collision Repair Partner through 2027.
The multi-year agreement links the Major League Soccer club with the B.C.-based collision repair company in a partnership that will include in-stadium branding and fan engagement initiatives throughout the season.
“We are very pleased to welcome Craftsman Collision into our Whitecaps FC family,” said Aditi Bhatt, chief commercial officer with Vancouver Whitecaps FC. “They are an organization with deep roots in British Columbia who have supported our community for decades, much like our club. We look forward to working together as we begin another very exciting season.”
Under the deal, Craftsman Collision will sponsor the turfboni at all Whitecaps FC home matches and back a Save of the Month feature highlighting standout goalkeeping performances. The company will also launch a VIP matchday experience contest later this season.
Craftsman Collision, which operates across British Columbia, aligns with the club on shared priorities including community involvement, long-term relationships and family values.
“As BC’s favourite family-owned body shop, partnering with Vancouver Whitecaps FC is a natural fit,” said Rick Hatswell, president and chief executive officer of Craftsman Collision. “Their strong sense of family -- from the club to the fans -- reflects the values that guide us in communities across the province. We’re proud to support their impact on and off the pitch.”
Founded in 1974, the Whitecaps are one of North America’s longest-standing professional soccer clubs and have competed in Major League Soccer since 2011. The club operates a fully integrated development system that supports nearly 35,000 participants annually from grassroots to the professional ranks.
