Hans-Peter Villis, chairman of the EnBW Energie Baden-Württenberg AG: "The co-operation between EnBW and VfB has been an extremely successful partnership over many years. The continuation of that co-operation over the coming years has always been the target of both partners. Thanks to the contractual agreements which have now been met, there is nothing more standing in the way of achieving that target."

Erwin Staudt, VfB Stuttgart president: "EnBW Energie Baden-Württemberg AG and VfB Stuttgart have worked together confidently and in a highly successful manner for many years. We are delighted that the partnership between EnBW and VfB will continue and we will do all in our power to ensure that further success stories will follow in the future."

EnBW Energie Baden-Württemberg AG and VfB Stuttgart are to continue their very long co-operation. The third largest German energy provider will become VfB Exclusive Partner as from the beginning of the 2010/2011 season and, as such, provide a comprehensive service in the running of the Mercedes-Benz Arena. EnBW will also provide extensive advertising presence at VfB’s home games, including the individual use of LED advertising hoarding around the pitch.
