Shamrock Farms has announced a 5-year multi-tiered partnership with Arizona State University, and Sun Devil Athletics. Additionally, the partnership connects its powerful presence as one of Arizona's largest homegrown companies with ASU's W. P. Carey School of Business. The partnership reflects a shared commitment to health, performance, and community—values that both organisations embrace.
Devon McClelland, president of Shamrock Farms, said, "As an Arizona company, I am focused on our state's long-term success, which is why we are partnering with ASU to support student-athletes on and off the field. We're also working to prepare the next generation of leaders and meet the growing needs of Arizona's workforce."
All of ASU's 600+ student-athletes will enjoy access to Shamrock Farms milk, dairy and its Rockin' Protein ready-to drink protein beverages. And with the newly formed partnership, the nutrition bar in the Butterfield Kent Furst Student-Athlete Facility will now be known as the Rockin' Protein Refuel Bar. The company will also have a presence at ASU football, basketball (men's and women's) and baseball games.
Graham Rossini, athletics director, Shamrock Farms, said, "We value Arizona-based businesses that recognise the importance of partnership with ASU and Sun Devil Athletics, and the mutual benefit offered through meaningful collaboration. Sun Devil Athletics is an incredible platform for partnership, as improving outcomes for our student athletes both athletically and academically, is of the highest importance; hence the unique opportunity for Shamrock and ASU Athletics."
Beyond Sun Devil Athletics, the collaboration supports educational excellence through the W. P. Carey School of Business' esteemed Morrison School of Agribusiness and Supply Chain Executive Consortium, and will support student career initiatives university-wide.
Ohad Kadan, Charles J. Robel Dean and W. P. Carey, distinguished chair in business, said, "This partnership exemplifies the kind of collaboration that elevates both campus and community. By connecting the strength of Shamrock Farms — one of Arizona's most respected companies — with the innovative spirit of Sun Devil Athletics and the academic excellence of W. P. Carey, we are preparing the next generation of business leaders to drive impact and build a stronger future."
Joanne Vogel, vice president of student services with educational outreach and student services at ASU, said, "Industry partners like Shamrock Farms prepare our students for the workforce of the future. We are grateful for their investment in internships and real-world experiences that cultivate the skills and confidence students need to succeed in Arizona's growing economy. Relationships like these ensure that we source strong, local talent that benefits both students and employers."
