Dowling Civil Engineering has become the naming rights partner of the Community Stand at the ProAmpac Stadium as part of a new three-year agreement with the Imps.
The agreement comes as Dowling celebrates 20 years in business, marking two decades of delivering civil engineering projects and supporting the local community.
The partnership will see Dowling become an official platinum partner of the club, strengthening the relationship between two organisations with a shared commitment to supporting Lincoln and its people.
The stand in the south-east corner of the ProAmpac Stadium will be renamed the Dowling Community Stand, with Dowling’s name and branding displayed above it.
Based in Saxilby, Dowling Civil Engineering specialises in delivering large-scale civil engineering, roads and sewer projects, including housing developments and works for contractors on Ministry of Defence projects. The company is Constructionline and CHAS accredited, with a focus on delivering high-quality work safely and efficiently.
As a local business, Dowling shares the club’s belief in the importance of supporting the community and the people who make Lincoln special. The new agreement provides a further opportunity to build on the relationship over the next three years.
Patrick Dowling, managing director of Dowling Civil Engineering, said: “We are delighted to renew our commitment to Lincoln City and continue a partnership that means a great deal to us.
“Celebrating 20 years in business makes this an especially proud moment for everyone at Dowling. It is a chance to recognise the hard work of our team and the support of our clients and partners who have helped us reach this milestone.
“As a local business, we are proud to support a club that brings people together and plays such an important role in our community. For us, this partnership goes beyond football – it is about investing in Lincoln and supporting the people who make it special.
“Shaun and I look forward to continuing our work with Bobby and the team, strengthening our relationship and cheering on the Imps in the seasons ahead.”
Bobby Copping, City’s chief commercial officer, said: “The naming of the Dowling Community Stand gives this partnership a visible and lasting presence at the ProAmpac Stadium, reflecting the strength of our relationship and Dowling’s continued support for the club.
“Having the backing of businesses with such strong local connections is hugely valuable to us. This agreement reinforces our shared commitment to Lincoln and provides a strong platform from which to develop our partnership further.
“We look forward to working closely with Patrick, Shaun and the team over the next three years and exploring further opportunities to build on what we have established together.”
