Kukri Sports is proud to announce the extension of its successful partnership with the UK Sports Institute (UKSI), reinforcing Kukri\u2019s commitment to supporting elite athletes across the UK with high-performance, sustainable sportswear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since the partnership began in 2022, Kukri has served as the Official Kit Supplier to UKSI, providing bespoke apparel for over 400 staff across multiple centres nationwide.

\u201cWe’re delighted to extend our partnership with Kukri for another year. We’ve worked together for several years now and we have valued their commitment to innovation in that time. Kukri\u2019s collaborative approach has enabled us to develop initiatives together, from the range of kit we can offer our team through to sustainability projects such as the kit recycling programme, which has been a success\u201d<\/em> \u2013 Tash Carpenter, Director of Communications at UKSI.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Josh Beal, Sales Director at Kukri Sports<\/strong>, commented, \u201cExtending our partnership with UKSI underscores our dedication to supporting the UK’s high-performance sports community. We look forward to continuing our collaboration, focusing on innovation and sustainability.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

As the partnership continues, Kukri and UKSI are committed to developing advanced kit solutions that meet the evolving needs of support staff, ensuring excellence in performance and environmental responsibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
