FC United of Manchester United and Fusion for Business have announced an exciting three-year partnership which aims to reduce energy costs and generate income for the club. Fusion for Business was founded in 2019 in Durham, inspired by their CEO's experience in the energy sector, where he saw a lack of regulation and trust. Determined to offer a fair and honest approach to energy, they opened their first office in Consett, focused on providing business customers with a stress-free, transparent service, ensuring they weren’t overpaying for this essential need. Despite the challenges of Covid, which made the market more difficult and saw other companies exploiting customers, FFB continued to grow. Paul Fleckenstein Managing Director at Fusion For Business said; “In 2023, we expanded to Salford Quays, enabling us to help even more businesses and attract new talent. This move also opened the door to exciting partnerships, including an opportunity to work with FC United, where we found shared values in supporting the community. Together, we’re committed to helping the Club and the local area thrive. At FFB, we believe in building partnerships that make a difference for everyone involved.” Paul Haworth, Commercial Manager at FC United of Manchester United said; “When I first met the team at Fusion for Business back in March 2024, I was impressed by their approach and their enthusiasm to help the club and its surrounding communities. Since then, we have been in regular discussions building a solid working relationship, resulting in the signing of a 3-year partnership in September.” As part of the agreement, Fusion for Business will work closely with FC United on a number of initiatives: (1) To help the club claim back any non-disclosed commission and costs the club had wrongly incurred. (2) Assist the club in it’s Energy Management delivering cost and carbon savings (3) Help the club use its energy more efficiently and creating a Net Zero plan for the club, (4) Provide financial contributions based on any business to business referrals. (5) Support the club through sponsorship and advertising. Paul Haworth added; “As a facility that is used all day, every day, it’s vital we understand our energy usage and look to reduce costs as much as possible.
