Support Of Key PGM Programs Forges Relationships With Future Decision Makers
Findlay, Ohio (May 26, 2009) – Pukka Headwear, designer and manufacturer of premium golf headwear is excited to announce its designation as the official headwear supplier at top PGM programs Ferris State and New Mexico State Universities.
The initiative was introduced by Pukka’s Vice President of Sales and Ferris State graduate John Bond in an effort to further align Pukka Headwear with future decision makers within the golf pro shop. Pukka’s product is perfectly positioned with these students as this demographic understands fashion. In addition, Pukka’s headwear program is ideally suited to help the future assistant pro’s suggest new headwear design ideas and make smart decisions in terms of inventory management.
As part of the agreement, each program will receive full product support for many key activities surrounding their alumni, on-campus PGM Students, golf teams and fund raising.
“Support of these two programs is especially easy to rationalize as they represent the leading edge of the nations PGM Programs. Building brand preference at this grassroots level within the trade is yet another outlet for Pukka to cement itself as the headwear brand of choice,” says Shawn Rogers, President of Pukka Headwear. “We look forward to continued support of key PGM Programs under the direction of John Bond,” adds Rogers.
Ferris State coordinator Matt Pinter comments “As the leader in PGA of America sanctioned programs, Ferris State University is proud to announce Pukka Headwear as the Official Headwear of Ferris State PGM. Pukka’s outstanding products and service, along with their ties to our PGM alumni association make this a very easy decision and we are excited about this relationship.”
