Toro extends agreement with European Tour to 2018

The Toro Company has renewed its multi-year partnership with the European Tour to continue thel 15-year relationship. The partnership includes the European Tour, Senior Tour and Challenge Tour across Europe, the Middle East, Africa and Asia, reflects Toro’s position as the market leader in golf.

“After a full market analysis, we are proud to see Toro come out on top and be selected by the European Tour as the best partner to meet their needs,” said Andy Brown, corporate account manager for Toro’s International Business. “There was, as always, significant competition, but the quality of Toro products combined with local dealer support and the fact that most European Tour venues are existing Toro customers, we believe was a key differentiator.”

Toro turf equipment and irrigation products will continue to assist the European Tour in the presentation and playability of the courses to provide the best possible conditions for players, promoters, sponsors and the watching public. With a large majority of the European Tour venues already using Toro equipment and irrigation means that most operators will be able to use additional machines without the need for extensive training.

“The contract runs from 1 January 2016 to 31 December 2018 and signals the start of the next era between the Tour and Toro,” says Darren Redetzke, Vice President of International Business. “Toro has very similar goals to the European Tour in that we are constantly focused on innovation, sustainability and pushing the boundaries.”
