Published:

Mayo company Corrib Oil – official fuel partner to Connacht Rugby – has officially launched the 2025/26 rugby season at the High Performance Centre at Dexcom Stadium, Galway.

The partnership, in place since 2020, includes sponsorship of both the Connacht Rugby women’s and men’s senior teams.

The Corrib Oil logo will continue to be featured on the men's home, away and European kits, and was recently featured on the women’s kit in the IRFU Interprovincial Championship.

Phillip Monks, chief marketing officer with Corrib Oil, was joined at the launch by Connacht players Cathal Forde, Cian Prendergast and David Hawkshaw.

Founded in 1987 by the Dalton family in Claremorris, Corrib Oil embarked on a mission to transform the oil distribution sector.

Initially with a team of eight, the company has evolved into a formidable entity, comprising over 38 service stations, 20 depots, and approximately 1,300 employees spread across its retail and oil division.
