The Ospreys are delighted to announce that Castell Howell will be continuing their sponsorship with the club, with the food service wholesalers sponsoring both the seven and nine jerseys.
Castell Howell is supporting a wide range of international talent that typically wear the jerseys, including Harri Deaves, Kieran Hardy, Jac Morgan, Reuben Morgan-Williams, Ross Moriarty and Morgan Morse, accompanied by a group of up and coming homegrown youngsters.
The Ospreys’ partnership with Castell Howell has continued to grow since they became involved with the club and this latest sponsorship further emphasises their investment in rugby in Wales.
Commercial Director for the Ospreys, Richard Lancaster, said: “Castell Howell’s care and interest for the Ospreys and Welsh club rugby as a whole has been nothing short of impressive in recent years, so we’re really happy to have them on board again this season.
“With the team firmly in the running for the BKT URC top eight and already into the knockouts of the EPCR Challenge Cup, Castell Howell’s brand will be proudly displayed in front of multi-continental audiences.”
Speaking on their extended sponsorship, Haydn Pugh, Sales and Marketing Director, said:
"At Castell Howell, we are extremely proud of our partnership with Ospreys Rugby. As a Welsh business, we fully recognise the vital role that Ospreys Rugby and local grassroots rugby clubs play in developing the next generation of players, something we are deeply passionate about supporting.
As a proud family business, our commitment goes far beyond the playing field. With games being played at the Brewery Field in Bridgend this season, we’re delighted to support not only the team but also the many local businesses we supply in the area. Supporters coming to cheer on the Ospreys will also bring a welcome boost to neighbouring establishments, enjoying fantastic food and drink while adding to the vibrancy of the Bridgend community.
Another reason this partnership feels so special is our close connection with Jac Morgan, who is an ambassador for our Celtic Pride scheme. Celtic Pride is a premium Welsh beef brand that ensures cattle are reared and processed in Wales to strict welfare, sustainability, and traceability standards — guaranteeing consistent quality from farm to fork. Jac embodies the same values and vision that underpin both Celtic Pride and Castell Howell, making our relationship with Ospreys Rugby even more meaningful.
For us, the vision is clear — to ensure that everyone, from rugby fans to local businesses, feels the benefit of our involvement. Making a positive difference to the communities we care about so deeply is at the heart of who we are as a family business."
Starting in 1988, the family-run business Castell Howell has grown to become Wales’ leading independent food service wholesaler, servicing the length and breadth of Wales, the Border Counties, and the Southwest of England.
The Ospreys are excited to further build on their partnership with Castell Howell as they look to their future, centred around local businesses. To find out more about Castell Howell, please visit: www.castellhowellfoods.co.uk/
