A Shared Vision for Sustainable Innovation
“At Kress, we believe that achieving zero emissions isn't just about reaching our goal - it's about partnering on the journey with pioneers who show the world what's possible,” said Nicki Jones, the Head of Marketing at Kress. “Forest Green Rovers doesn't just talk about sustainability, they live it every day. By supporting the greenest football club in the world, we're investing in a shared vision: that industry, sport, and innovation can lead the way to a carbon-neutral future.”
Delivering Professional Standards the Green Way
Forest Green Rovers Head Groundsman Nick Johnstone added:
“Managing two sites comes with its challenges, so to have this fantastic equipment helping us keep both locations in top condition is incredible. With sustainability at the forefront of everything we do at FGR, we switched to fully electric a couple of years ago, so to team up with a company like Kress is brilliant. The robotic lawnmower has quickly become a team favourite — its user-friendly setup enables us to free up staff time for other important tasks.”
