Buxton Natural Mineral Water has announced that it will continue to be the official water supplier to the England cricket team for a further two years.

Buxton, which became an English Cricket Board (ECB) partner in 2008, will continue as the exclusive supplier of bottled water to the England cricket team for all home international matches until the end of the 2013 season.

Buxton will continue to use the partnership to support in-store activity for retailers, such as signed merchandise, match tickets and player appearances, which can be used for competitions and to drive footfall.

In addition Alastair Cook, the One-Day International Captain will continue in his role as the Buxton brand ambassador.

Jenny Bond, head of marketing and CCSD, Nestlé Waters UK says: "We are proud to continue as the official water supplier to the England cricket team. Like cricket, Buxton Natural Mineral Water is quintessentially British, and the sponsorship remains a fantastic opportunity to promote Buxton.”

ECB head of commercial partnerships, Mark Pearce, adds: “We’d like to thank Buxton for their continuing support for English cricket. This is the second time in four years that the company has renewed its agreement with ECB and their nationwide in-store marketing activity has played an important role in raising the profile of the England Team.”
