"We welcome Allied Express Logistics, Elite Solar and Electrical, the WORKWEAR Group and Munich Bauhaus to the North Melbourne family and look forward to plenty of shared success."
Allied Express is the largest independently owned courier, express freight and specialised logistics company in Australia and will become an LED signage, Community and digital partner of the Club.
"Allied Express Logistics is extremely proud to now partner with the iconic North Melbourne Football Club," Allied CEO Colin McDowell said.
"We feel we share an affinity with the core values of the club and its members. We like to associate with genuine people who are not afraid to get their hands dirty in getting the job done. Allied provide individually tailored delivery and logistical solutions to some of Australia’s most recognisable brands, we do much more than just deliver."
Elite Solar and Electrical will also become an LED signage partner whilst helping power the club's headquarters, with the installation of new solar panels at Arden Street.
"The Shinboner spirit of the club resonates with Elite Solar and Electricals own culture," director Paul Batkovic said.
"With great government rebates still in place and high rates from energy retailers, there is no better time than now to look into a suitable solar power system for your home or business."
The WORKWEAR Group has signed on as a digital partner of the club and will be kitting out the players and staff with club suits for the 2015, 2016 and 2017 seasons.
“Operating across multiple industries, the WORKWEAR Group's Industrial and Imagewear teams believe that pride in what you do, starts with what you wear.

Located in South Wharf, Munich Brauhaus has signed on as North's official pre-game venue for North fans as a place for supporters who aren't traveling to away games to watch North play interstate. Munich Brauhaus sits within the Urban Purveyor hotel group and is the only truly national restaurant group without gaming, and accordingly is a perfect fit for North Melbourne.
“We are really excited to announce our partnership with North Melbourne AFL. Munich is the ideal venue to help enhance the experience of all the loyal supporters that follow this fantastic club.
“As a part of the sponsorship we will be looking to work with North Melbourne to really bring to life the colour of both brands," Munich Brauhaus Marketing Director Daniel Hopkirk said.
