| | From Staff Reports Today JTG Daugherty Racing announced a 2009 Sprint Cup sponsorship agreement with Bush Brother’s and Company.
Based in Knoxville, Tennessee, the company will enter its 7th season as a partner. For the first time, Bush’s Baked Beans will serve as a primary sponsor in the Sprint Cup Series for Marcos Ambrose’s #47 Toyota in Richmond (5/2) and Darlington (5/9). The brand will also serve as a major associate sponsor for 10 events next season.
Ambrose commented, “We are thrilled to have Bush’s Baked Beans back on board in a big way in 2009. They have been a great partner for us and our other sponsors, Kingsford and Little Debbie, and we are excited to see those relationships continue as we make our move up to Cup racing. I got the opportunity to meet Jay and Duke (the famous talking canine spokesperson) this week during a photo shoot for next season’s marketing campaign. It was a blast! I can’t wait to get things going in Daytona in the spring”.
Jay Bush, Brand Ambassador and star of the brand’s advertising campaign added, “Duke and I are really excited about our partnership with Marcos Ambrose and JTG Daugherty Racing. They are a great team, and have represented our brand very well in the past. We are excited about continuing our relationship in the Sprint Cup Series. If I can just keep Duke from selling Marcos the Secret Family Recipe, we're in for a great season.
