The Korea Professional Football Federation announced on the 25th that it has signed an official league sponsorship agreement with Federal Express Corporation (hereinafter referred to as 'Fedex') which is one of the world's largest express companies in the 2026 season.

The agreement is based on a partnership between the two sides since 2023. FedEx sponsored six K League teams in 2023, and four in 2024 and 2025. In addition, in 2024, 40 million won was donated to the K-League Social Contribution Foundation's "K-League Assistance" to help improve the safety of soccer stadiums.

Starting this year, FedEx Delivery of the Month will be newly introduced. From March to October, each league's "Best 3" assist will be selected for K League 1 and K League 2 games every month, and one final winner will be determined through fan voting. The selected players will be awarded a prize of 1 million won and a commemorative trophy.

FedEx Delivery of the Month was inspired by the accuracy and speed shown by successful assist during a football game, which contained FedEx's philosophy and values in pursuit of fast and reliable delivery.

Park Won-bin, head of FedEx Korea, said, "We are very meaningful to continue our collaboration for four consecutive years, and through expansion into an official sponsor, we can reach more fans and customers across the country. We hope that the newly introduced FedEx Delivery of the Month will provide fans with a pleasant viewing experience, and we will continue to strengthen cooperation with the K League to expand social contributions in the community."

Cho Yeon-sang, secretary-general of the Korea Professional Football Association, said, "It is very meaningful to continue our collaboration with FedEx. We will continue to expand various fan-participating contents, including FedEx's Delivery of the Month," he said.

Meanwhile, FedEx will continue its stadium safety campaign this year at Anyang Stadium and Incheon Football Stadium. The campaign is an activity that actively informs emergency evacuation routes and safety rules with the aim of creating a safe viewing culture in the stadium.
