Today, the Columbus Blue Jackets and T. Marzetti Company announced a multi-year partnership extension and elevation that designates Marzetti®, the company’s flagship brand of dressings and dips, as an Official Partner of the National Hockey League franchise. The Columbus-based food company, whose brands include Marzetti, New York Bakery™, and Sister Schubert’s®, first joined the Blue Jackets family of corporate partners in 2022.
A highlight of the enhanced partnership includes entitlement to the Blue Jackets Player Dining Room located on the event level in Nationwide Arena. Used by players, coaches and members of the Blue Jackets Hockey Operations Department, the dining room is an essential space to fuel and refresh throughout the season.
The partnership extension also includes a new video segment, “GameDay Eats!,” taking place in the Player Dining Room. The feature will air on Blue Jackets’ social media channels and includes a Marzetti chef showcasing recipes for fans to make at home.
“The Blue Jackets are thrilled to continue working with the T. Marzetti team over the next five years to bring delicious recipes to the fans featuring their signature Marzetti dressings and dips,” said Blue Jackets Vice President of Partner Activation & Premium Service Becky Coffey.
“We are proud to be a corporate partner of the Blue Jackets, helping to nourish players and fans throughout the hockey season,” said Carl Stealey, president of T. Marzetti Company’s retail business.
Marzetti will also serve as the presenting partner of a new segment within CBJ’s Rink Report called “Ingredients to Success” which airs on social and digital media, and in-arena before all home games at Nationwide Arena.
