PowerBug, one of Europe’s leading golf trolley manufacturers, has been named as the Official Golf Trolley Manufacturer of the European Senior Tour.
As part of the agreement, PowerBug will exhibit at The Senior Open Championship Presented by Rolex at Royal Porthcawl Golf Club, from July 24-27, and the Travis Perkins Masters at Woburn Golf Club, from August 29-31, as well as at one more Senior Tour event.
In addition, PowerBug’s ‘TV Score Bugs’ – ten modified golf trolleys which will replace the usual walking scorer carryboards - will be used at the SSE Scottish Senior Open being played at Fairmont St Andrews from August 15-17, as well as at Woburn. These branded trolleys will accompany the leading ten groups on both the Saturday and Sunday of the tournaments, giving PowerBug exposure via the Senior Tour’s global television distribution.
Rob Hunt, Managing Director PowerBug said: “Working with The European Senior Tour this year will give us a fantastic opportunity to showcase the PowerBug brand throughout Europe. Our new season UV product will be demonstrated at exhibition events with its unique inbuilt Ultra Violet Radiation Detector together with our 27 hole mini lithium battery weighing less than 1 kilo.”
Simon Harris, Commericial Manager for the European Senior Tour, said: “PowerBug has a superb reputation for its build quality and customer satisfaction, so we are delighted to welcome them as our Official Golf Trolley Manufacturer.
“PowerBug will have a presence at three of our biggest events during the 2014 season and we look forward to them being part of the European Senior Tour.”
The PowerBug range is one of the fastest growing brands in the market with exports to mainland Europe accounting for more than 60 per cent of sales, making it a net UK exporter. With its offices located near Windsor and distribution hub near Reading in Berkshire, PowerBug has grown to be one of Europe’s largest golf trolley manufacturers by volume. This growth can be attributed to its innovative designs and rugged build quality.
