"Every great performance begins long before the stadium lights turn on," said STRAUSS CEO Henning Strauss. "Whether on a construction site, in manufacturing, in the field or preparing a ballpark for the world's best players, success depends on skilled tradespeople who take pride in their craft. This partnership allows us to celebrate those professionals on one of the biggest and most iconic stages in the sport."
The collaboration reflects STRAUSS's ongoing commitment to championing craftsmanship across industries and disciplines. It also marks the brand's first integration into a truly global sports broadcast.
