MVIS scores great results for Matlock Town

The majority of MVIS’ staff are local to the area, and as a business we have a great team spirit which is evident to all customers and visitors.

As a company nestled in the heart of the Peak District, we support the local area whenever we can, and this year has been no different.

Last season, MVIS sponsored local club Matlock Town FC’s new football academy, offering 16-18 year olds wishing to pursue a career in sports, the opportunity to study, train and play football full-time for two years, achieving a BTEC Level 3 in sport.

MVIS has since signed a two year deal to continue its sponsorship of the academy – which is currently expanding to accommodate its second student intake – and also to sponsor Matlock Town first team’s shirts.

As well as sponsoring the team shirts and the new academy, MVIS has also provided the club with a number of variable message signs (VMS) which they can use to help promote their upcoming matches and other important information to their audiences within the ground, and passers-by on the street.

The VMS-C – the larger of the VMS units – is now situated within the DCJ Group Insurance Arena and is a great way to display the last goal scorer, man of the match and any other important information that the crown may need to know. Because our VMS are able to be updated remotely from a PC or any Wi-Fi enabled Apple device, the information on the non-glare screen can be changed in an instant to keep everyone up-to-date.

The five colour display supports pictograms too, which gives The Gladiators the chance to create eye-catching messages and offers a great opportunity for other sponsors to promote their brands throughout the match.

MVIS has also installed a VMS-A outside the club on Causeway Lane, which announces upcoming games and ticket information. This is visible from the street so catches a huge audience on a daily basis, and because it can be pre-programmed with up to five different messages, it’s quick and easy to maintain.

If you think your business would benefit from hiring a VMS, please get in touch on 01629 580570.
