Who We Are
Demographics
Commercial Sponsorship provides businesses with greater visibility to the our unique military, retiree and surrounding community market. By partnering with FMWR, your organization can gain access to a vast market of financially stable customers. It is an opportunity for exposure to our population leading up to the event and direct one-on-one interaction with our community at the event. Sponsorship is a wonderful way to launch new products by offering samples at major events, use of company name/logo in promotional materials and establishing brand awareness and preference among the military community.
