Olympic Supplier programmes provide key areas of support and products required by the IOC for its operations.
DaimlerChrysler provides transport for all IOC operations in Switzerland and the various meetings around the world (outside the Olympic host countries). In addition to the IOC's direct needs, Mercedes is providing the IOC, through Olympic Solidarity, with 50 minibuses for a special sports aid programme to National Olympic Committees (NOCs) in developing countries.
DaimlerChrysler has been an IOC supplier since 1991.
Mizuno provides the clothing/outfits for the IOC and administrative staff at the Olympic Games and other events. Mizuno was a Gold Sponsor for the Olympic Games in Nagano and is a sponsor of the Olympic Museum in Lausanne.
Following its successful relationships with a number of National Olympic Committees over the past years, the IOC is pleased to have Schenker as its Official Supplier for freight forwarding and customs clearance services. Schenker AG will work with the IOC and the Organising Committees for the Olympic Games in Beijing 2008 (BOCOG). A specialized team is focusing on Olympic activities and provides services for all major IOC meetings and Sessions. The IOC welcomes the expertise of the Schenker team, as the success of each Games is inseparably linked with excellent freight forwarding and customs clearance services.
