Tuesday, July 1, 2008 New sponsor for Quick Step by VeloNation Press at 12:52 PM EST   comments Categories: Pro Cycling   In a press release Quick Step has announced a 3-year sponsorship agreement with the casual clothing company James Harvest Sportswear. The James Harvest brand is a Swedish Brand that offers corporate image clothing all over the world and is distributed by Texet Benelux in Belgium. The news is timely for the team, as they are about to begin the Tour de France without reigning green jersey winner Tom Boonen. "For our team it is a matter of pride to join forces with such a prestigious international label," explains team manager Patrick Lefevere, " Harvest is a company known all over the world for quality products that promote team spirit, an integral part of the company’s philosophy that’s a perfect match with the style of our team." Title sponsor Quick Step had already announced it's intentions to stick around, and news of another sponsorship deal should make it easier for the team to concentrate on the race at hand.       comments Follow @Pro_Cycling Tweet Subscribe via RSS or daily email Contact the editor about this article
