Albion's shirt sponsors IT First lived up to their name and reputation as number one by becoming the first company to sign up for one of fourteen corporate boxes at the club's new stadium.
The Sussex-based IT business specialists, who have sponsored the club shirt for the past two seasons, were one of the first businesses invited to view the corporate facilities available.
IT First managing director Paul Goldsmith said, "We've seen the plans, bought the box, now we cannot wait to actually get to use the box and watch the Albion play at Falmer.
"It's been a long and hard road, but we've been with the club all the way, and are absolutely delighted they have made sure that the most loyal sponsors have been looked after in this way.
"It is not just ourselves, but all those companies who fans will have seen in the programme, on the boards around the pitch and backing the club in so many ways.
"I would like to say thanks and well done to Tony [Bloom], Ken [Brown], Martin [Perry], Dodge [Paul Rogers] and all at the club."
Commercial manager Paul Rogers commented, "We have made sure our longest-standing and most loyal sponsors have had first refusal on the corporate opportunities available.
"All existing commercial partners and sponsors have been invited to the stadium to view the plans and given a detailed presentation of what is on offer. The take up so far has been excellent."
Albion are in the process of writing to all existing season-ticket holders, offering them the opportunity to sign up for corporate packages, before approaching potential new customers.
Rogers added, "First and foremost we will look after those who have helped the Albion through the tougher times."
