That is why this footy nut is such an avid sponsor of so many different sporting teams on the Mid North Coast and has now branched out to Port Macquarie.
Originally located in Kempsey, a Tumblegum Bakehouse and Cafe store now exists in our town and Martin is more than happy to help out the local teams.
“Basically we’re trying to help out the local sporting groups, get our product out there and hopefully in return for our sponsorship they can come and enjoy our food at the same time,” he said.
“I’m a big footy nut, I follow the footy and do a few tipping comps and what not so it’s something I love.”
Starting off with the Kempsey Mustangs, Tumblegum has gone on to sponsor no less than eight teams including junior rugby league, football and now the Port Macquarie Sharks and Hy-Tec Sharks.
Martin said he is still willing to take on more teams, if anyone is still looking for sponsors.
“If anyone is out there that needs a hand, anything is possible, and we’d love to help out sporting teams where we can,” he said.
“It’s important to get our name out there and help.
“Everyone loves to get involved with the sporting clubs and it’s a pleasure to be involved with so many teams.”
