PARIS 2024: New equipment supplier for Ivorian athletes

Following an agreement signed between NOC Côte d’Ivoire (CNO-CIV) and the equipment supplier, NUBA, on 21 May 2024 at CNO-CIV headquarters in Cocody 2 Plateaux les Vallons, Abidjan, NUBA, an American outfit, managed by Yves MEKONGO and Yannick Formbor NONO, both Africans, will dress up Ivorian athletes and their delegation at the Paris 2024 Olympic Games.

NUBA Managing Director Yannick Formbor NONO asserted that:

‘‘Beyond the competition, it’s about promoting quality. We’re going to offer good quality clothing to the delegation going to the Games and also to Ivorians who will be able to buy our branded clothing in Côte d’Ivoire during the Games.’’

Representing CNO-CIV President, Dr Joseph N’GOAN, CNO-CIV 1st Vice-President, Dr Allah KOUAME, noted that:

‘‘This ‘win-win’ partnership is relevant in many respects. While NUBA will supply equipment to the delegation to the Games, CNO-CIV will be the showcase through athletes’ performances.’’

Adama DOUMBIA, Technical Adviser at the Ministry of Sports and Living Conditions stated:

‘‘We applaud the Committee and its partner for this partnership that aligns with the vision of the Ministry of Sports.’’

This partnership could continue even beyond the Paris 2024 Olympic Games.
