SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. (April 4, 2012) – The Gateway Pro Tour announced today that Swiss America, a gold and silver trading company located in Phoenix, has signed on as a sponsor of the Gateway Pro Tour.
Swiss America was established in 1982 to assist Americans in planning a precious metals portfolio to help preserve wealth.
“For three decades we’ve inspired Americans, just like you, to build a solid future with U.S. gold and silver coins,” said Dean Heskin, CEO of Swiss America. “The keys to success include a basic understanding of economic trends, product knowledge, timing and the selection of a well-established, financially sound and reputable firm. We look forward to serving you in 2012.”
Sponsors provide an essential resource for the Gateway Pro Tour. Some of the ways sponsor money allows for the continued growth, success, and recognition of the Gateway Pro Tour are – Tour expansion, increased purse sizes, Nationwide and PGA TOUR exemptions, Q-School bonuses, administration, tournament equipment and materials, charity golf tournaments, community involvement and enhanced membership benefits.
“Sponsors are integral in the continued growth of our Tour and we are thankful for companies like Swiss America who want to help these players as they try to achieve their dreams of playing on the PGA TOUR,” said Ryan Pray, Executive Director of the Gateway Pro Tour.
