“Walton is a leading Bangladeshi multinational electronics company, which exports its products to over 50 countries. Walton’s journey mirrors the transformation of the country itself. From a strong foundation in local manufacturing to an expanding international footprint, Walton has become a symbol of Bangladesh’s capability and confidence, a press release said.
Argentina’s Ambassador to Dhaka Marcelo Carlos Cesa made the remarks at a program titled “Argentina Fan Jersey Unveiling Ceremony” held at Walton Corporate Office in the capital on Monday last (February 23, 2026).
The envoy attended the event as the chief guest while Walton Hi-Tech Industries PLC’s Chairman S M Shamsul Alam, Managing Director S M Mahbubul Alam and Director Sabiha Jarin Arona were also present.
Walton is the official regional sponsor of the world champion Argentina national football team. Walton has joined the Argentina national football team by signing an agreement with the Argentine Football Association (AFA). Through this, Walton has acquired all types of branding rights of the Argentina national football team. Messi-Martinez are seen in various branding activities of Walton products, which is playing a major role in the company becoming one of the top global brands. In view of this, the company has unveiled the fan jersey of the Argentina football team ahead of the upcoming 2026 FIFA Football World Cup. Countless customers and well-wishers of Walton across the country will receive this Argentina fan jersey.
Addressing the event as the chief guest, the Argentina’s envoy said, “When the Argentina Football Association chooses Walton as its regional sponsor in Bangladesh, it is not merely selecting a brand. It is recognizing a nation’s progress. Sponsorship is not simply about logos on jerseys or visibility in stadiums. It is about aligning values. It is about inspiring people. When young boys and girls in Bangladesh watch Argentina play, they see skill, teamwork, and perseverance. Now, in these new jerseys they will also see a Bangladeshi brand represented alongside those ideals. They will perceive that global excellence is not far away or unreachable- it can begin right here, at home. May this collaboration flourish, and deepen connections between our countries.”
Walton Hi-Tech’s Managing Director S M Mahbubul Alam said, “Argentina’s football spirit goes beyond its borders. In Bangladesh, millions of fans passionately support Argentina. During World Cups, the streets of Dhaka, Chattogram and many villages are filled with sky-blue and white flags. This love reflects the emotional connection Bangladeshi fans feel toward Argentina’s style of play, the humility of players, and the inspiring football journey. We are really honored and glad to be a part of the Argentina National Football Team through the successful collaboration with AFA.”
Football is in our blood. At Walton, we support all sports. During the World Cup, we will launch football tournaments nationwide—in our offices, factories, and among all employees and distributors across the country, the Walton MD added.
Business Coordinator to Walton’s Managing Director Tanvir Anjum moderated the jersey unveiling function where Walton’s Chief Marketing Officer Zoheb Ahmed delivered the welcome speech.
