Based in Gloucestershire, Forest Green Rovers was recognised by the United Nations as the world’s first carbon-neutral football club and was recently described by FIFA as the ‘greenest team in the world.’
Dr Vegan will work with the vegan club to bring nutrition expertise and advice from the brand’s nutritionists on everything from pre-game nutrition to post-match recovery.
The partnership will also include pitch-side advertising.
Dr Vegan co-founder Gordon Lott said: "This is a really exciting time for Dr. Vegan. We are excited to continue to build out our partnerships portfolio across professional sport to support other prestigious sports teams and bodies like Forest Green Rovers."
