The multi-million dollar deal will include uniforms and several pieces of training equipment for the various levels with the Elite League club.

Similarly, Andre Noel, Category Manager-Juices expressed praises for the club’s (Fruta Conquerors) contribution to the country’s football landscape, adding, the club and the company has one similar objective, which is to nurture the talents of Guyanese at all levels.
