Ross County Football Club has announced a new partnership with Scottish company Trojan Crates for the 2026/27 season. The deal, confirmed by the club on Monday, will see Trojan Crates supply bespoke kit hampers to help organise and protect the team's playing kit and equipment.
This collaboration builds on an existing relationship between the Dingwall side and the protective solutions specialist. Trojan Crates' products will now support Ross County both on matchdays and during travel, a key factor for a squad currently sitting 2nd in League One with 13 points from their first five games. The club's strong start, which includes 12 goals scored and only 4 conceded, demands reliable support off the pitch as they chase leaders Hamilton Academical.
What does the partnership involve?
The core of the agreement focuses on Trojan Crates providing custom-made kit hampers for Ross County. These specialist containers are designed to keep everything protected, organised, and ready for use, addressing the specific demands placed on kit and equipment when teams are travelling and competing regularly. Greig Thomson, Sales Executive at Trojan Crates, expressed his pride in the deal. "We’re extremely proud to be supplying Ross County FC with bespoke kit hampers and to continue building on the great relationship between the club and Trojan Crates," Thomson said.
Trojan Crates brings a strong heritage in elite sport, having supplied bespoke kit hampers, Peli cases, and other protective solutions to professional sports teams for many years. Their understanding of the logistical challenges in football makes them a fitting partner for a club with a busy schedule, including a home fixture against Peterhead on November 7th. Fans can track the team's progress through the fixtures and standings pages.
Why is this deal important for Ross County?
For Business Development Executive Mark Ridgers, the partnership addresses a practical need that supports performance. "When you’re travelling regularly and dealing with a large amount of kit and equipment, having reliable storage and protection is really important, so the bespoke hampers will be a great addition for the team," Ridgers stated. He highlighted the value of working with a Scottish business that understands the demands of the game, noting Trojan Crates' strong reputation across professional sport.
The deal also aligns with a broader club philosophy. "There’s a real emphasis on supporting Scottish businesses and building strong relationships within our local community," Ridgers added, looking forward to working closely with Trojan Crates throughout the season and beyond. This community focus is a hallmark of the Ross County brand, which is widely respected across the Highlands.
How does it fit with the club's current season?
The partnership arrives at an opportune moment for Ross County. The team is in a tight title race, just three points behind Hamilton Academical with a goal difference of +8. Maintaining organisation and efficiency behind the scenes is part of building a successful campaign. The support from Trojan Crates will be utilised as the squad prepares for its next challenge, a home match against 7th-placed Peterhead. Details on player availability can always be found on the club's squad page.
Greig Thomson of Trojan Crates also pointed to the stature of the club as a motivating factor for the partnership. "Ross County is such a strong and well-respected brand across the Highlands, with fantastic links to its local community, so it means a great deal to us to be associated with the club," he said. This mutual respect forms the foundation for a partnership that extends beyond a simple supplier agreement. Ross County's next home game is scheduled for November 7th, 2026.
