Official Partnership between Gofere and Ethiopian Football Federation

Gofere, the ever-growing Pan-African sports brand, has entered into a three-year partnership with the Ethiopian Football Federation as the exclusive referee technical kit partner. This partnership marks a new milestone in the history of Ethiopian football.

Under this partnership, Gofere will provide referee kits for  referees officiating at all levels of football leagues overseen by the Ethiopian Football Federation. These kits have been carefully designed and tested in both laboratory and on-field settings to ensure the highest quality and performance.

The partnership was signed by Gofere’s CEO and Co-founder Samuel Mekonen and Ethiopian Football Federation General Secretary Bahiru Tilahun. The ceremony was held in the presence of esteemed personalities, including Gofere Ambassador and International Referee Bamlak Tessema, former International Referee Lidya Tafese, members of the national standing committee of referees including the team lead former international assistant referee Shewangezaw Tebabel, Ethiopian Football Federation executives, Gofere brand ambassadors, families and officials, along with numerous referees and journalists.

The new Gofere referee attire will be worn by all referees starting from the upcoming Ethiopian Premier League season, which is scheduled to begin on 20th September.

Gofere is confident that this partnership will not only enhance the overall experience of the game but also address any previous issues related to referee attire. Also, the partnership will EFF not only elevate the appearance of referees but also provide them with the necessary comfort and functionality.
