Gold Coast SUNS Sign VOAO as New AFL Neckline Partner

The Gold Coast SUNS have confirmed a new commercial partnership with VOAO Facility Services, designating the facility management organisation as the club’s new AFL Neckline Partner for the 2026 season.

The agreement will see the VOAO brand featured on the front of the SUNS’ New Balance playing guernseys, securing a prominent inventory asset for “several seasons to come.”

Emphasising the shared focus on high standards, Gold Coast SUNS CEO, Mark Evans, said: “The Gold Coast SUNS are fearless in its pursuit of being the best and we’re thrilled to partner with another organisation who places the utmost importance on high performance and driving success.” 

“VOAO is driven by its customers and its commitment to providing the highest standard service, as we are to dedicated members, fans and the wider Gold Coast community,” Evans stated.

Highlighting the synergy between the two organisations, VOAO CEO, Ben McArthur, added: “VOAO Facility Services is proud to partner with the Gold Coast SUNS, aligning our commitment to quality, reliability, and community with a club that embodies those same values.” 

“Together, we look forward to supporting excellence on and off the field and contributing to a thriving future for the SUNS and the wider Gold Coast community.

“VOAO, like the SUNS, is built on a fearless belief that standards can always be raised to new levels to provide the best outcomes for our clients,” he said.

This partnership merge a local Gold Coast-born business into the club’s commercial tier. VOAO is a national facility management organisation that specialises in providing services to sectors including government, education, and healthcare. The company focuses on creating environments that prioritise productivity and safety, aligning with the high-performance culture the football club is seeking to maintain.

The agreement follows what the club describes as a “historic AFL season in 2025,” a period that also saw the launch of a new club logo and updated playing guernseys. This refreshed brand identity and on-field performance have seemingly increased the appeal of the club’s commercial assets to local and national businesses.

The multi-year nature of the deal suggests a stable commitment, providing the SUNS with commercial security as they look to build upon their recent competitive and brand achievements.
