    Shamrock Farms inks partnership with Arizona State University

    Shamrock Farms announced a five-year multi-tiered partnership with Arizona State University (ASU), and Sun Devil Athletics. The partnership connects Shamrock's presence as one of Arizona's largest homegrown companies with ASU's W. P. Carey School of Business.

    This partnership reflects a shared commitment to health, performance, and community — values that both organizations embrace.

    "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," said Devon McClelland, president of Shamrock Farms and the fourth generation of McClelland family company leadership. "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-plus 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. Shamrock Farms will also have a presence at ASU football, basketball (men's and women's) and baseball games.

    "We value Arizona-based businesses that recognize the importance of partnership with ASU and Sun Devil Athletics, and the mutual benefit offered through meaningful collaboration", said Athletics Director, Graham Rossini. "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.

    "This partnership exemplifies the kind of collaboration that elevates both campus and community," said Ohad Kadan, Charles J. Robel Dean and W. P. Carey Distinguished Chair in Business. "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."
