Kukri Sports is proud to announce the extension of its successful partnership with the University of Exeter, reinforcing a shared commitment to performance, innovation, and student experience.
Following an initial four-year agreement, the renewed partnership will see Kukri continue as the official sportswear provider for the University’s students, staff, and Athletic Union. The extension builds on a strong foundation of collaboration, with both organisations working closely to deliver high-quality, bespoke sportswear that reflects Exeter’s heritage and supports athletes across all levels.
Since the partnership began, Kukri has supplied tailored kit solutions designed to enhance performance while strengthening team identity across a wide range of sports. The extension will enable further development of these ranges, incorporating ongoing feedback from students and staff to ensure the offering remains innovative, inclusive, and fit for purpose.
Chris Marshall, COO at Kukri Sports, commented:
“We’re delighted to extend our partnership with the University of Exeter. Over the past few years, we’ve built a fantastic relationship with the university, its students, and its sports teams. This extension is a testament to the success of that collaboration. We look forward to continuing to evolve our bespoke ranges, supporting performance and participation, and delivering products that students are proud to wear.”

“I am delighted to highlight the excellent partnership we have developed with Kukri Sports as our official team kit supplier. Their commitment to quality, reliability, and service has been outstanding, ensuring our students and staff are provided with high-performance, professional-looking kit that reflects the pride and identity of our university.
