Mumbai: Consumer ware brand Borosil Ltd on Tuesday announced that it has renewed and expanded its sponsorship with The Indian Olympic Association (IOA) and has become their official associate sponsor for the Indian contingent. Under this sponsorship, Borosil will provide support for Indian athletes leading up to the upcoming Asian Games, Commonwealth Games, and the 2024 Olympics.

This extended collaboration will grow Borosil's reach and have a positive impact on the Indian sporting ecosystem, the company said in a statement.

"We are extremely pleased to strengthen our partnership with Borosil Ltd which has been beneficial for all our Indian athletes," said IOA secretary general Rajeev Mehta. "Borosil is a trusted homegrown brand that has touched all our lives with healthy nutrition and hydration.  I would like to thank Borosil for showing their continued support for team India."

In 2018, Borosil was associated with IOA as its official 'hydration partner' for national athletes who represented India at the 18th Asian Games and Summer Youth Olympics. Borosil provided Indian athletes and officials with their Hydra range of bottles to ensure that the contingent used the best and safest products to stay hydrated during their training and competitions.

"This is a very proud moment for us to be associated with Indian Olympic Association. As an Indian company, it is our honour to support our great nation's sporting endeavours," said Borosil Ltd MD Shreevar Kheruka. "We are glad to be part of the enabling process to support Indian athletes in their endeavours and look forward to them bringing laurels to India in the world of sports.”
