History

Founded in Bologna in 1971 as a sports goods store, Macron evolved in the 1980s into a small manufacturing company, producing garments for other sports brands. In the 1990s, it launched its own brand while continuing third-party production.

Macron entered professional football in 2001 with its first sponsorship of Bologna FC 1909, marking the beginning of a growth journey in the world of sports club sponsorships.
