💸 𝐌𝐨𝐧𝐞𝐲 𝐢𝐧 𝐌𝐮𝐧𝐢𝐜𝐡 💸 📈 FC Bayern München make history this year, with an annual turnover exceeding $1 billion for the first time in the club’s history. Total profit rose by an impressive 15% to $66.2 million, while net profit climbed 21% to $45.5 million. 🌍 A key driver behind this success is their unparalleled membership program, boasting 382,000 members, the largest of any club worldwide. 📈 This achievement also reflects the Bundesliga International GmbH’s broader growth, with commercial revenue increasing by 19% last season to nearly $1.89 billion and broadcast revenue rising by 10% to approximately $1.58 billion. Finally, a large contributing factor in this, is the leagues leading game attendance averages, which was at 42,966 spectators per match in the 23/24 season, and an average stadium utilisation of 92%. 🏟️ Even in these standards, Bayern excels, selling out the 75,000 seat Allianz Arena in every home game in the 23/24 season, as well as being on track to do the same this year. ❌ 🏆 What makes these figures even more impressive is that they were achieved during a trophyless season, Bayern’s first since 2011/12, and under Germany’s strict ticket pricing regulations, which limit revenue from ticket sales. These results display the power of fan engagement and serve as a powerful reminder to clubs and rights holders: prioritizing fans and maintaining strong community ties can deliver extraordinary financial and organisational success. #SportBiz #SportBusiness #Football #Bayern
