With great honor we would like to announce that Mizuno has signed a two-year agreement with Volleyball World, a marketing company responsible for promoting volleyball globally. With this agreement we aim to further strengthen its ties with volleyball fans around the world – deepening consumer connectivity with Mizuno products, affiliated teams and athletes. This agreement with Volleyball World will strengthen Mizuno Volleyball's brand appeal and contribute to the promotion of volleyball on a global scale and the expansion of its fan base by making it possible to utilize the image rights of teams and players participating in various tournaments organized by the Fédération Internationale de Volleyball (FIVB) through 2024.

Last year, through our agreement with Volleyball World, we were able to establish new contacts with volleyball fans around the world, particularly through digital tools. We are delighted to be able to continue our partnership with Volleyball World for the next two years, which will further enhance our brand presence in the volleyball world. As a big volleyball fan myself, I sincerely hope that through this agreement the sport will be better known and appreciated by sports fans around the world.”
