Partnership marks fourth consecutive collaboration since 2014
For an unprecedented fourth time in a row, GAC will be The Ocean Race’s Official Logistics Partner, extending a successful collaboration that has been in place since 2014.
For the first time, GAC will support all three major events on The Ocean Race calendar: The Ocean Race Europe 2025, The Ocean Race Atlantic in 2026, and the flagship around the world race starting from Alicante, Spain, in 2027. Services provided will include a raft of comprehensive logistics support including feasibility planning, transportation of event infrastructure, and on-site material handling and operational support at host cities around the world.
The partnership will also include commitment from GAC to support The Ocean Race’s award-winning Racing with Purpose sustainability programme. The company will play a key role in supporting The Ocean Race’s decarbonisation ambitions – in line with its Sports for Climate Action and Race To Zero goals – with pre-event carbon budgeting and post-event carbon reporting for all freight movements under their control, including on-site operations. GAC will also contribute to the expansion of the Race's learning programme, inspiring the next generation of ocean advocates.
“GAC’s partnership with The Ocean Race marks a new chapter – one defined by greater ambition, investment and purpose,” says Nicholas Browne, Managing Director, GAC UK.
“We will drive meaningful change through our Environmental, Social and Governance initiatives with an activation programme built to champion ocean health and sustainability, creating a lasting positive impact for the sectors we support with our shipping, logistics and marine services, as well as the sport of sailing.”
Andrew Lamb, The Ocean Race’s Director of Partnership Development, adds: “Logistics are at the heart of the operation of The Ocean Race as our events take us around the world. For three consecutive editions, GAC has provided world-class solutions to the event, its teams and stakeholders and we are pleased to have them with us through this critical period in our cycle for our three upcoming global race events.
“The support and commitment we share towards sustainability and reducing the impact of our operations is an important pillar of our relationship as we look forward to a fourth consecutive partnership.”
The Ocean Race Europe 2025 starts from Kiel, Germany, on 10 August, continuing through Portsmouth, UK; Cartagena, Spain; Nice, France; and Genova, Italy before the Finale in Boka Bay, Montenegro on 21 September.
